In this investigation, a sensitive sensor for ochratoxin A detection was designed based on graphene oxide (GO) and DNase I for amplified fluorescence signal. The outcomes of this investigation indicated that this exploratory platform exhibited efficient sensitivity and good selectivity for ochratoxin A when existence of other toxins. The proposed sensor displayed a linear response over a range of 100-1000 nM (R² = 0.986) with a low detection limit of 38.2 nM (S/N = 3) and showed remarkable convenience. In addition, the constructed sensor was examined by testing real food samples spiked with different concentrations of ochratoxin A. Results demonstrated that the constructed sensor provided an effective method for ochratoxin A evaluate in complicated food sample analyses.
