| Description | It is urgently necessary to develop convenient, reliable, ultrasensitive and specific methods of ochratoxin A determination in food safety owing to its high toxicity. In the present study, an ultrasensitive and labeled-free fluorescent aptamer sensor combining real-time fluorescence with strand displacement amplification (SDA) was fabricated for the determination of OTA. In the presence of OTA, the OTA–aptamer combines with OTA, thus opening hairpins. Then, SDA primers specifically bind to the hairpin stem, which is used for subsequent amplification as a template. SDA amplification is initiated under the action of Bst DNA polymerase and nicking endonuclease. The amplified products (ssDNA) are dyed with SYBR Green II and detected with real-time fluorescence. The method has good linearity in the range of 0.01–50 ng $mL^{−1}$, with the lowest limit of detection of 0.01 ng $mL^{−1}$. Additionally, the fluorescent aptamer sensor shows outstanding specificity and reproducibility. Furthermore, the sensor shows excellent analytical performance in the artificial labeled detection of wheat and oat samples, with a recovery rate of 96.1~100%. The results suggest that the developed sensor has a promising potential application for the ultrasensitive detection of contaminants in food. |
