Cover Story: Electrochemical sensors are a useful tool for the detection of epigenetic modification because of their advantages of simple operation, cheap equipment, low cost and high sensitivity. Electrochemical sensors can achieve direct, sensitive, convenient, rapid, high-sensitivity and high-specificity detection of various epigenetics biomarkers, playing an important role in the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and research of epigenetics-related diseases. The unique advantages of electrochemical sensors are more in line with practical needs in that the detection of epigenetic diseases can take place out of the hospital in the future. This paper reviewed various detection methods of epigenetic modification using electrochemical sensors. View this paper
