Abstract

Abstract Epirubicin is an effective anticancer drug, but naturally causes several side effects. Hence the determination of this drug in biological samples, plays a key role in evaluating its effects and side effects. In this research, a novel label-free DNA-based biosensor was fabricated for the analysis of epirubicin in biological samples. The sensor was fabricated through modifying a pencil graphite electrode with polypyrrole, nitrogen doped reduced graphene (for improving the electrical conductivity) and salmon sperm ds-DNA (PP/NrG/ds-DNA/PGE) and the changes in the electrode signal were used for the determination of epirubicin. The PP/NrG/ds-DNA/PGE showed a high sensitivity for epirubicin in the concentration range of 0.004–55.0 μM and had a detection limit of 1.0 nM. For further evaluations, the interactions between ds-DNA bases and epirubicin were investigated through a theoretical docking study and the obtained data confirmed the intercalation of epirubicin in the minor grooves of ds-DNA with guanine bases. The PP/NrG/ds-DNA/PGE was used for the analysis of epirubicin in injection and urine samples.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
