| Abstract: | An aptamer-based electrochemical sensor for the sensitive detection of staphylococcal enterotoxin type A (SEA) is presented. The truncated aptamer AptSEA1.4 used in this work was screened using computational techniques, which reduced the cost of the SELEX screening process. The aptamer-SEA interactions were confirmed by employing circular dichroism (CD) and fluorescence spectroscopy. Afterwards, for developing an electrochemical aptasensor, a fabricated GNR/FTO aptasensor was prepared and characterized using scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM–EDX), atomic force microscopy (AFM), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and square wave voltammetry (SWV). A detailed investigation of aptamer and SEA interaction in the presence of various experimental conditions was also conducted through SWV and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The aptamer exhibits a strong affinity for SEA, with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 19.93 nM. The aptasensor is sensitive, with a lower limit of detection of 12.44 pg mL−1. It has good stability, repeatability, and specificity and has displayed highly specific and sensitive detection SEA in spiked packaged mixed fruit juice and milk, with a recovery of 95–110%. The aptasensor has high promise for detecting SEA in other food items. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
