摘要:
The invention provides methods of detecting a nucleic acid. The methods comprise contacting the nucleic acid with one or more types of particles having oligonucleotides attached thereto. In one embodiment of the method, the oligonucleotides are attached to nanoparticles and have sequences complementary to portions of the sequence of the nucleic acid. A detectable change (preferably a color change) is brought about as a result of the hybridization of the oligonucleotides on the nanoparticles to the nucleic acid. The invention also provides compositions and kits comprising particles. The invention further provides methods of synthesizing unique nanoparticle-oligonucleotide conjugates, the conjugates produced by the methods, and methods of using the conjugates. In addition, the invention provides nanomaterials and nanostructures comprising nanoparticles and methods of nanofabrication utilizing nanoparticles. Finally, the invention provides a method of separating a selected nucleic acid from other nucleic acids.

A cleavable signal element applicable to quantitative and qualitative assay devices, using a cleavable technique specifically responsive to a complementary double strand or single strand of nucleic acids, and a nucleic acid hybridization assay method and device using the cleavable signal element are provided. Using the cleavable technique responsive to the complementary double strand or single strand of nucleic acids, detection sensitivity to a target nucleic acid can be increased, and diagnosis and detection reliability can be improved twice through in-situ determinations. Through simultaneous single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection and expression profile determination, more accurate diagnosis for many diseases can be achieved. The assay device can be easily modified to be suitable for detection with general laser-based detection systems such as CD-ROM readers. Information read from the assay device is digitized as software and transmitted to and received by doctors and patients through a computer network or wirelessly, which enables construction of remote diagnosis systems.

摘要:
Use of dipsticks to test for the presence of target nucleic acid in a sample solution is described. The dipsticks comprise a contact end for contacting the sample solution and a capture zone, remote from the contact end, to which a capture probe is immobilised. The capture probe is capable of hybridising to the target nucleic acid. The sample solution is contacted with the contact end of the dipstick and travels by capillary action to the capture zone. If target nucleic acid is present in the sample solution it is captured and can be detected at the capture zone. The capture probe is immobilised to the capture zone by a spacer. Use of the spacer increases the stability of the interaction between the capture probe and the target nucleic acid and thus improves the sensitivity of target nucleic acid detection. Detection probes with spacers are also described.
