Abstract
Due to the wide range of electrochemical devices available, DNA nanostructures and material-based technologies have been greatly broadened. They have been actively used to create a variety of beautiful nanostructures owing to their unmatched programmability. Currently, a variety of electrochemical devices have been used for rapid sensing of biomolecules and other diagnostic applications. Here, we provide a brief overview of recent advances in DNA-based biomolecular assays. Biosensing platform such as electrochemical biosensor, nanopore biosensor, and field-effect transistor biosensors (FET), which are equipped with aptamer, DNA walker, DNAzyme, DNA origami, and nanomaterials, has been developed for amplification detection. Under the optimal conditions, the proposed biosensor has good amplification detection performance. Further, we discussed the challenges of detection strategies in clinical applications and offered the prospect of this field.

Abstract
Glass nanopipets have been demonstrated to be a powerful tool for the sensing and discrimination of biomolecules, such as DNA strands with different lengths or configurations. Despite progress made in nanopipet-based sensors, it remains challenging to develop effective strategies that separate and sense in one operation. In this study, we demonstrate an agarose gel-filled nanopipet that enables hyphenated length-dependent separation and electrochemical sensing of short DNA fragments based on the electrokinetic flow of DNA molecules in the nanoconfined channel at the tip of the nanopipet. This nanoconfined electrokinetic chromatography (NEC) method is used to distinguish the mixture of DNA strands without labels, and the ionic current signals measured in real time show that the mixed DNA strands pass through the tip hole in order according to the molecular weight. With NEC, gradient separation and electrochemical measurement of biomolecules can be achieved simultaneously at the single-molecule level, which is further applied for programmable gene delivery into single living cells. Overall, NEC provides a multipurpose platform integrating separation, sensing, single-cell delivery, and manipulation, which may bring new insights into advanced bioapplication.
