Area of Science:

Analytical Chemistry
Biotechnology
Materials Science

Background:

Isotachophoresis (ITP) is an electrokinetic separation technique.
Graphene oxide (GO) offers unique surface properties for biomolecule interactions.
Thread-based analytical devices provide a low-cost, disposable platform.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a novel, low-cost, disposable thread-based electrofluidic analytical method.
To demonstrate surface DNA hybridization using isotachophoresis and graphene oxide functionalization.
To enable visualization of DNA hybridization for potential diagnostic applications.

Main Methods:

Utilized nylon threads functionalized with graphene oxide (GO) as a binding platform.
Employed isotachophoresis (ITP) to focus fluorescently labeled single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) onto GO zones, causing fluorescence quenching.
Detected complementary DNA (cDNA) by observing the restoration of fluorescence upon hybridization and release from GO zones.

Main Results:

Successfully trapped ssDNA on GO-functionalized threads, indicated by fluorescence quenching.
Demonstrated surface DNA hybridization upon introduction of complementary DNA (cDNA).
Observed restoration of fluorescence signal upon hybridization, indicating dsDNA release from GO zones.

Conclusions:

The GO-functionalized thread-based microfluidic approach enables controllable DNA hybridization detection and visualization.
This method offers a low-cost, disposable platform with potential for adaptation into point-of-care (POC) diagnostic devices.
The developed technique shows promise for real-world diagnostic applications requiring sensitive DNA detection.
