The invention relates to an electrochemical method of detecting single-chain target 
DNA concentration based on G-quadruplex-
heme compound and polymeric 
chain type amplification reaction, and belongs to the technical field of 
analytical chemistry. A capture probe and an auxiliary probe are designed, the two ends of the auxiliary probe each contain a 
nucleotide sequence complemented with the target 
DNA, and the middle of the auxiliary probe contains a 
base sequence capable of forming G-quadruplex. The capture probe and the target 
DNA recognize each other and are subjected to continuous polymeric 
chain type reaction to form chain-shaped 
polymer, the chain-shaped 
polymer is fixed to an 
electrode through the capture probe on the surface of the gold 
electrode, and a great number of G-quadruplex structures are introduced onto the surface of the 
electrode. Then, G-quadruplex and 
heme are combined to form the compound with powerful electrochemical signals, and the target DNA is detected through the corresponding relation among the electrochemical signals obtained through 
differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) scanning, the G-quadruplex-
heme compound on the surface of the electrode and the concentration of the target DNA added into the 
system. HIV DNA in the sample is detected through the method, and an ideal effect is obtained. The electrochemical method has the advantages of being high in sensitivity and specificity.
