An interference-free and label-free sensing platform was developed for the highly sensitive detection of microRNA-21 (miRNA-21) in vitro by magnetic silicon microsphere (MNP)-reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-based sandwich probe. In this method, DNA capture probes (P1) were connected with MNPs at the 5′ end and hybridized with completely complementary target miRNA. Subsequently, rGO was retained and induced the fluorescence quenching in the supernatant. Through the magnetic separation, the supernatant environment was simplified and the interference to analytical signal was eliminated. When DNA capture probe-modified magnetic silicon microspheres (MNP-P1) were adsorbed through rGO in the absence of a target and formed a sandwich structure, the formed nanostructure was easily removed from the solution by a magnetic field and the fluorescence intensity was maximally recovered. This proposed strategy, which both overcame the expensive and cumbersome fluorescent labeling, and eliminated interference to analytical signal for guaranteeing high signal-to-background ratio, exhibited high sensitivity with a detection limit as low as 0.098nM and special selectivity toward miRNA-21. The method was potentially applicable for not only detection of miRNA-21 but also various biomarker analyses just by changing capture probes.
