    DNA methylation is involved in the oncogenesis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and could be used for early detection of cancer to increase the chances of cure, but unfortunately diagnosis is usually made at late stages of the disease. In this work we developed genosensors to detect DNA methylation of the MGMT gene in head and neck cancer cell lines. The probe for MGMT promoter methylation was immobilized on gold electrodes modified with 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (11-MUA) self-assembled monolayers (SAM). Detection was performed with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, with clear distinction between methylated and non-methylated DNA from head and neck cell lines. The genosensor is sensitive with a low detection limit of 0.24 × 10
