A highly efficient and versatile microchip capillary electrophoresis method for DNA separation using gold nanoparticle as a tag.

A highly efficient and versatile method for DNA separation using Au nanoparticles (Au NPs) as a tag based on microchip capillary electrophoresis (MCE) was developed. The thiol-modified DNA-binding Au NPs were utilized as a tag. Target DNA was sandwiched between Au NPs and probe DNA labeled with horseradish peroxidase (HRP). In electrophoresis separation, the difference in electrophoretic mobility between free probe and probe-target complex was magnified by Au NPs, which enabled the resulting mixture to be separated with high efficiency by microchip capillary electrophoresis. Horseradish peroxidase was used as a catalytic label to achieve sensitive electrochemical DNA detection via fast catalytic reactions. With this protocol, 27-mer DNA fragments with different sequences were separated with high speed and high resolution. The proposed method was critical to achieve improved DNA separations in hybridization analyses.
