A ferrocenyl deoxyribooligonucleotide (FcODN(rC)) with contiguous cytosine bases and a single ribonucleotide, cytidine, was immobilized on a gold electrode, and this electrode was used to detect RNase A. RNase A activity in a solution was assessed using cyclic voltammetry, and it was found that the current response of the sensor electrode decreased with increasing enzyme concentration. An extremely low detection limit of 1.0×10−11 g mL−1 RNase A was observed, with 15–90 % changes in the current signal. RNase activity can be an indicator of a number of diseases; therefore, this probe has great potential for applications in medical diagnostics.
