Methylene blue embedded duplex DNA as an efficient signal stimulator of petal-like BiVO4 for ultrasensitive photoelectrochemical bioassay

Conventionally, the photoelectrochemistry relies on freely diffusive signal molecules in solution to stimulate the photocurrent output, leading to limited sensing strategies. Herein, we showcase the methylene blue (MB) embedded duplex DNA for efficient signal stimuli and its application for ultrasensitive photoelectrochemical (PEC) bioassay. Specifically, the MB embedded duplex DNA scavenged the photogenerated holes of petal-like BiVO4...
