High performance liquid chromatographic analysis of reduction products of a thiolated DNA for immobilization on gold nanoparticles

Authors

Abstract:

DNA-based nano-biosensors are emerging scope in the field of biosensors. Many synthetic single stranded functional DNAs have been applied for development of such sensors, recently. Immobilization of DNA oligonucleotides on the surface of gold nanoparticles is a key step in the development of most colorimetric nano-biosensors. The bound DNA is usually thiolated and forms Au-S covalent bond to the surface of gold nanoparticles. To this endeavor, the DNA must get reduced prior to immobilization. There are a variety of approaches for reduction of thiolated DNAs that mostly employ Dithiothreitol (DTT). DTT-based DNA reduction is not always complete and the sulfhydryl DNA (DSH) is not the sole product of the reaction. The results of the reduction of a thiolated DNA with DTT is analyzed in this paper with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in order to find an optimal condition for DTT based reduction. Finally, the optimal condition is compared to TCEP-based reduction for the efficiency of DNA immobilization on the surface of gold nanoparticles.

A Reversed Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatographic Method for Determination of Rapamycin

Easily degradating and various isomeric forms of rapamycin (Sirolimus) face the determination of this compound to many challenges. In this study, we developed and validated the isocratic reversed phase high performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method for rapamycin. Separation was performed on a C8 column (MZ, 15 × 4.6 mm, 5 µm particle size) using methanol:water (80:20 v/v) as the mobil...

A High-Performance Liquid Chromatographic Assay for the Determination of Losartan in Plasma

A rapid and sensitive HPLC method was developed for determination of losartan in plasma. Losartan was extracted from plasma by a two-step extraction procedure using chloroform as extracting solvent in acidic medium. HPLC analysis was performed on a cyano reversed-phase column using phosphate buffer (pH 4.3), acetonitrile (750:250, v/v) as mobile phase with a flow rate of 0.9 mL/min. Sodium dicl...

HIGH-PERFORMANCE LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHIC DETERMINATION OF THEOPHYLLINE IN HUMAN SERUM

A simple, rapid and sensitive HPLC method for the determination of theophylline (T) in human serum has been developed. An isocratic system consisting of a /-l Bondapak C18 column, mobile phase of methanol, phosphate buffer (22:78, pH=4.5), and a flow rate of 1.4 mL/min was used. The eluent was detected by UV at 275 nm at room temperature. 8-Chlorotheophylline (8-CT) was used as an internal ...
