Abstract：
Development of a sensitive, specific and cost-effective DNA detection method is motivated by increasing demand for the early stage diagnosis of genetic diseases. Recent developments in the design and fabrication of efficient sensor platforms based on nanostructures make the highly sensitive sensors which could indicate very low detection limit to the level of few molecules, a realistic possibility. Electrochemical detection methods are widely used in DNA diagnostics as it provide simple, accurate and inexpensive platform for DNA detection. In addition, the electrochemical DNA sensors provide direct electronic signal without the use of expensive signal transduction equipment and facilitates the immobilization of single stranded DNA (ssDNA) probe sequences on a wide variety of electrode substrates. It has been found that a range of nanomaterials such as metal nanoparticles (MNPs), carbon based nanomaterials, quantum dots (QDs), magnetic nanoparticles and polymeric NPs have been introduced in the sensor design to enhance the sensing performance of electrochemical DNA sensor. In this review, we discuss recent progress in the design and fabrication of efficient electrochemical genosensors based on carbon nanostructures such as carbon nanotubes, graphene, graphene oxide and nanodiamonds.
