Label-free dual assay of DNA sequences and potassium ions using an aptamer probe and a molecular light switch complex.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A homogeneous assay is reported using Ru(phen)(2)(dppz)(2+) and a K(+)-binding aptamer for the selective and sensitive detection of a target oligonucleotide and potassium ions, based on reduction in fluorescence emission according to the formation of the G-quadruplex structure from the aptamer in the presence of K(+).

Designing a Label Free Aptasensor for Detection of Methamphetamine
A label-free electrochemical nucleic acid aptasensor for the detection of methamphetamine (MA) by the immobilization of thiolated self-assembled DNA sequences on a gold nanoparticles-chitosan modified electrode is constructed. When MA was complexed specifically to the aptamer, the configuration of the nucleic acid aptamer switched to a locked structure and the interface of the biosensor changed...
متن کاملA novel label-free cocaine assay based on aptamer-wrapped single-walled carbon nanotubes
Objective(s): This paper describes a selective and sensitive biosensor based on the dissolution and aggregation of aptamer wrapped single-walled carbon nanotubes. We report on the direct detection of aptamer–cocaine interactions, namely between a DNA aptamer and cocaine molecules based on near-infrared absorption at λ807. Materials and Methods: First a DNA aptamer recognizing cocaine was non-co...

متن کاملCrystal violet as a fluorescent switch-on probe for i-motif: label-free DNA-based logic gate.
The first application of crystal violet as a selective fluorescent switch-on probe for i-motif DNA has been reported. This interaction has been exploited to develop a label-free DNA-based "OR" logic gate for potassium and hydrogen ions.
