- Abstract
In this study, a colorimetric method for sequence-specific recognition of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) was established on the surface of a silver-coated glass slide. Oligo-1 was assembled on the surface of a silver-coated glass slide through an Ag-S bond, and Oligo-2 as reporter was used to bind with streptavidin-horseradish peroxidase (SA-HRP). They could bind with target dsDNA that was composed of Oligo-3 and Oligo-4 on the surface of a silver-coated glass slide through triplex formation. The bound HRP could be moved into the solution by DNase I and catalyze the oxidation of 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). Therefore, the concentration of target dsDNA could be determined with the colour change of TMB. Under the optimum conditions, the absorbance was proportional to the concentration of target dsDNA over the range of 100 pmol/L to 2.0 nmol/L, with a detection limit of 13 pmol/L. In addition, this method showed good sequence selectivity, enabling it to be further developed for the detection of other polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products.
