研究目的
To systematically study the adsorption and desorption of ZIF-8 with fluorescently labeled oligonucleotides, focusing on the binding between DNA and ZIF-8 influenced by electrostatic repulsion and hydrophobic interactions.
研究成果
The study concludes that the binding between DNA and ZIF-8 is strongly influenced by electrostatic repulsion and hydrophobic interactions, with shorter DNAs binding more rapidly. Desorption can be achieved by forming double-stranded DNA, but the high binding affinity makes displacement by non-complementary strands ineffective. These findings are valuable for designing DNA biosensors and devices based on ZIF-8.
研究不足
The study primarily focuses on the interaction between ZIF-8 and DNA, with limited exploration of other MOFs or conditions. The high binding affinity between DNA and ZIF-8 may limit the applicability for certain biosensor designs requiring reversible binding.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved the synthesis of ZIF-8 nanoparticles and their interaction with fluorescently labeled oligonucleotides of varying lengths. The methodology included fluorescence quenching experiments to study adsorption and desorption dynamics.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Four different lengths of single-stranded DNAs (12-mer, 18-mer, 24-mer, and 36-mer) were used, each labeled with FAM (6-carboxyfluorescein) on the 5’-end.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
ZIF-8 nanoparticles were synthesized using zinc nitrate hexahydrate and 2-methylimidazole. Fluorescence spectrophotometer was used for measuring fluorescence values.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The effect of ZIF-8 concentration, quenching time, and salt concentration on DNA adsorption was studied. Desorption was induced by adding complementary DNA strands.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
Fluorescence values were recorded to analyze the quenching and recovery rates, with each experiment performed in triplicate.
