摘要： In this paper, a novel method for selectively detection of dopamine (DA) in the interference of ascorbic acid (AA) is described. A nanometer-sized gold flower microelectrode (NGFME) is prepared by flame-etching and electrochemical deposition. The electrode tip was characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The NGFME is sized at about 100 m and dimensions of thorns of the electrode were in nanometers. By modifying with DA aptamer on the surface, the prepared aptasensor can selectively detect DA even in the presence of high concentration AA. Experimental results show that this NGFME has no response to AA. As a comparison, the carbon fiber electrode without DA aptamer modification is unable to effectively detect DA in the presence of AA. The NGFME is easy-to-prepare, selective and sensitive for DA detection down to 25 m. The electrode can be expected to detect DA in vivo and in real biological samples.

摘要： DNA origami technique, a breakthrough in DNA nanotechnology, has been widely used to prepare complex DNA nanostructures with nanoscale addressability. However, the purity and yield are generally the bottleneck to application of DNA nanostructures, and current methods for purifying DNA origami nanostructures in large quantities are time-consuming and laborious. This study aims to develop a scalable, cost-effective and contamination-free method of purifying DNA origami nanostructures. We employ an effective and convenient purification approach to purify planar rectangle DNA origami structures through rate-zonal centrifugation. By subjecting DNA origami samples to high centrifugal force in a density gradient media of glycerol, well-folded nanostructures and by-products are separated successfully, which are confirmed by agarose gel electrophoresis and atomic force microscopy (AFM). This method will aid the production of pure rectangle DNA origami nanostructures in large quantity.
