چکیده
In order to better understand the adsorption mechanism of nucleic acids at electrode surface, MAC Mode atomic force microscopy (MAC Mode AFM) was used to investigate the adsorption of a 10-base synthetic oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) with the sequence 5′-CTTTTTCTTT-3′ containing o a T e a i i ©

Adsorption of synthetic homo- and hetero-oligodeoxynucleotides onto highly oriented pyrolytic graphite: atomic force microscopy characterization.
DNA adsorption on electrode surfaces is of fundamental interest for the development of DNA-based biosensors. The free adsorption of 10-mer synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) onto highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surfaces was studied using Magnetic AC mode atomic force microscopy (MAC Mode AFM). The mechanism of interaction of nucleic acids with carbon electrode surfaces was elucida...
متن کاملAtomic force microscopy and anodic voltammetry characterization of a 49-mer diels-alderase ribozyme.
Atomic force microscopy and differential pulse voltammetry were used to characterize the interaction of small highly structured ribozymes with two carbon electrode surfaces. The ribozymes spontaneously self-assemble in two-dimensional networks that cover the entire HOPG surface uniformly. The full-length ribozyme was adsorbed to a lesser extent than a truncated RNA sequence, presumably due to t...
متن کاملDNA imaged on a HOPG electrode surface by AFM with controlled potential.
Single-molecule AFM imaging of single-stranded and double-stranded DNA molecules self-assembled from solution onto a HOPG electrode surface is reported. The interaction of DNA with the hydrophobic surface induced DNA aggregation, overlapping, intra- and intermolecular interactions. Controlling the electrode potential and using the phase images as a control method, to confirm the correct topogra...
متن کاملElectrochemically Preadsorbed Collagen Promotes Adult Human Mesenchymal Stem Cell Adhesion.
The present article reports on the effect of electric potential on the adsorption of collagen type I (the most abundant component of the organic phase of bone) onto optically transparent carbon electrodes (OTCE) and its mediation on subsequent adhesion of adult, human, mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). For this purpose, adsorption of collagen type I was investigated as a function of the protein c...
متن کاملHigh Resolution Image with Multi-wall Carbon Nanotube Atomic Force Microscopy Tip (RESEARCH NOTE)
In this paper, a simple and reproducible approach for attaching the multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) to the apex of the atomic force microscope probe has been proposed. For this purpose, the dielectrophoresis method was applied due to its simple performance, cheapness and reliability. In this method, various parameters such as voltage, frequency, concentration of carbon nanotubes solution an...
