- 摘要： We proposed and demonstrated a micro-capillary-based, high-sensitivity evanescent field biosensor for the cost-effective, rapid, and sensitive analysis and detection of specific DNA sequences. By functionalizing the surface of the tubing wall with ssDNA probe sequences, label-free DNA detection is achieved. The wavelength shift response of the surface-functionalized biosensors to DNA hybridization is monitored in real time. Our experiments show that the biosensor can operate at room temperature and is capable of performing label-free hybridization detection, analyte concentration measurement and nucleotide mismatch detection through a single sensing device. The sensor has many advantages, such as a simple manufacturing process, standardized production control, reliable quality, low cost and an economic demodulator. The compact nature and miniature size of the biosensing detection system makes it a good candidate for the rapid and highly sensitive detection of low-concentration analytes in micro-samples for cost-effective, real-time, and on-site analysis in the fields of life science, pharmaceutical chemistry, medical science and criminal investigation.
