Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) holds great promise as a noninvasive biomarker for cancer diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. However, the accurate and specific quantification of low-abundance ctDNA in serum remains a significant challenge. This study introduced, for the first time, a novel exponential amplification reaction (EXPAR)-assisted CRISPR/Cas12a-mediated ratiometric dual-signal electrochemical biosensor for ultrasensitive and reliable detection of ctDNA. To implement the dual-signal strategy, a signal unit (ssDNA-MB@Fc/UiO-66-NH
