Epithelial ovarian cancer is a malignant tumor of the female reproductive system with insidious symptoms, aggressiveness, risk of metastasis, and high mortality. Carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125), a standard biomarker for screening epithelial ovarian cancer, can be applied to track cancer progression and treatment response. Here, we constructed an aptamer-based electrochemical biosensor to achieve sensitive detection of CA125. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS
