The invention relates to a preparation method and application of an electrochemical
transducer with a
signal amplification technology. The preparation method comprises the following steps: firstly, preparing a gold-
platinum nano particle, fixing
thionine as an electrochemical
reagent on the surface of the gold-
platinum nano particle, fixing probe
DNA on the surface of the gold-
platinum nano particle so as to obtain an electrochemical probe, and simultaneously, self-assembling a hairpin
DNA on the surface of a gold
electrode to obtain an electrochemical
transducer. Target
DNA and the hairpin DNA assembled on the surface of the gold
electrode are partially complemented and paired so as to open a hairpin structure when the target DNA is added to the electrochemical
transducer, then another hairpin DNA chain replaces a target DNA chain through a competitive effect, and thus the target DNA chain is released; the released target chain unceasingly opens other hairpin structured DNA of the surface of an
electrode, thereby realizing the recycling of the target DNA chain under the cyclic action, and the recycling action is combined the prepared electrochemical probe to measure target DNA. The transducer provided by the invention is high in selectivity and detection sensitivity, the gold-platinum nano particle is utilized as a carrier to support
thionine to form the probe, and the transducer has the
advantage of electrochemical stability.
