PG - 114905 LID - S0003-2697(22)00365-7 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.ab.2022.114905 [doi] AB - In the present study, the objective was to evaluate in situ interaction between Benzo[a]anthracene 7,2-dione 7-oxime (BZA) and calf thymus dsDNA (ct-dsDNA) using electroanalytical genosensor. Analytical techniques based on Ultraviolet/Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy and electroanalytical were used to investigate the interaction processes in solution and immobilized on carbon screen-printed electrodes modified with electrochemical mediator Meldola blue. In addition, was possible to evaluate the degree of damage caused to the genetic material by the analyte through of toxicity estimate (S%). The interaction evaluated by genosensor showed processes of intercalation, degradation, and breaks of the double strand of ct-dsDNA, suggesting that the interaction simulates highly toxic (values varying from 0.6 to 0.8 muA in 48 h of interaction), such as 8-oxoguanine (+0.48 V), which is a by-product of guanine oxidation. Furthermore, monitoring A (+1.10 V) after 1 h showed an S% value between 50 and 90%, indicative of high toxicity, and monitoring G (+0.85 V), which showed S>90%, indicated no toxicity after 10 min. Overall, the electroanalytical genosensor developed in a miniaturized system displayed good reproducibility and stability over time being a quick alternative for assesses the degree of toxicity between toxic xenobiotics and biologically electroactive molecules, such as DNA.
