Abstract

Here, we demonstrated a $Pb^{2+}$ detecting aptasensor using $Pb^{2+}$-sensitive DNAzyme-conjugated gold nanorods (GNRs). Fluorescent DNA substrates that were initially quenched by GNRs, are released in response to $Pb^{2+}$ ions to give a substantial fluorescence signal. The GNR-tethered DNAzyme is reusable at least three times with a LOD of 50 nM.
