Pseudocapacitive nanomaterials have recently gained significant attention in electrochemical biosensors due to their rapid response, long cycle life, high surface area, biomolecule compatibility, and superior energy storage capabilities. In our study, we introduce the potential of using Ni−NiO nanofilm's pseudocapacitive traits as transducer signals in electrochemical aptasensors. Capitalizing on the innate affinity between histidine and nickel, we immobilized histidine-tagged streptavidin (HTS) onto Ni−NiOmodified electrodes. Additionally, we employed a biolayer interferometry-based SELEX to generate biotinylated patulin aptamers. These aptamers, when placed on Ni−NiO−HTS surfaces, make a suitable biosensing platform for rapid patulin mycotoxin detection in apple juice using electrochemical amperometry in microseconds. The novelty lies in optimizing pseudocapacitive nanomaterials structurally and electrochemically, offering the potential for redox mediator-free electrochemical aptasensors. Proof-of-concept is conducted by applying this surface for the ultrasensitive detection of a model analyte, patulin mycotoxin. The aptamer-functionalized bioelectrode showed an excellent linear response (10−10 6 fg/mL) and an impressive detection limit (1.65 fg/mL, +3σ of blank signal). Furthermore, reproducibility tests yielded a low relative standard deviation of 0.51%, indicating the good performance of the developed biosensor. Real sample analysis in freshly prepared apple juice revealed no significant difference (P < 0.05) in current intensity between spiked and real samples. The sensor interface maintained excellent stability for up to 2 weeks (signal retention 96.45%). The excellent selectivity, stability, and sensitivity of the electrochemical aptasensor exemplify the potential for using nickelbased pseudocapacitive nanomaterials for a wide variety of electrochemical sensing applications.
