More and more attention about food safety leads to a research hotspot to develop new detection methods for food contaminant. To address the problems of serious interference and low sensitivity, a chemiluminescent aptasensor for the detection of aflatoxin B1(AFB1) in food was developed in this paper. It is based on horseradish peroxidase (HRP) catalyze the luminol chemiluminescence reaction. The hybridization chain reaction (HCR) signal amplification strategy has been used to improve the detection sensitivity. Magnetic separation could further reduce background signal obviously at the same time. AFB1 as a model of analyte to test the capability of our developed assay system. Under the optimal experimental conditions, CL intensity showed a good linear correlation with the concentrations of AFB1 ranging from 0.5 to 40 ng mL−1. The limit of detection was estimated 0.2 ng mL−1 based on 3 times of the signal-to-noise ratio which is lower than those of the previously reported sensors. It could be used to detect AFB1 content in real samples, such as peanuts and milk which were purchased in local supermarket. The results proved that the sensing system has good anti-interference and selectivity. In all, it has potential for practical application in food safety field.
