A highly selective lead sensor based on a classic lead DNAzyme

Abstract

A catalytic beacon sensor for Pb2+ has been developed based on the first DNAzyme discovered in the field, and such a sensor has shown a much higher metal ion selectivity (40 000 times) than the previously reported Pb2+ sensor based on 8-17 DNAzyme and thus is suitable for a wider range of practical applications.
