Abstract
DNA electrochemical sensors have greatly promoted the development of biosensors for their high sensitivity, good selectivity, short analysis time and low cost. To further improve the detection sensitivity and selectivity, protein enzymes, functional nucleic acid enzymes etc. are often used due to the advantages of high catalytic efficiency and specificity. This review demonstrates the research progress of electrochemical sensors based on enzymatic amplification and analyses some existing problems of electrochemical sensors.
