ABSTRACT
Early and accurate diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 was crucial for COVID-19 control and urgently required ultra-sensitive and rapid detection methods. CRISPR-based detection systems have great potential for rapid SARS-CoV-2 detection, but detecting ultra-low viral loads remains technically challenging. Here, we report an ultrasensitive CRISPR/Cas12a-based electrochemical detection system with an electrochemical biosensor, dubbed CRISPR-SPCE, in which the CRISPR ssDNA reporter was immobilized onto a screen-printed carbon electrode. Electrochemical signals are detected due to CRISPR cleavage, giving enhanced detection sensitivity. CRISPR-SPCE enables ultrasensitive SARS-CoV-2 detection, reaching as few as 0.27 copies µL-1. Moreover, CRISPR-SPCE is also highly specific and inexpensive, providing a fast and simple SARS-CoV-2 assay.
