将DNA通过PDDA [poly(dimethyldiallylammonium chloride)]固定在单壁碳纳米管(CNT)表面, 形成DNA-PDDA-CNT纳米复合体, 用AFM、UV-Vis、Raman光谱及交流阻抗对其进行了表征. 用伏安法研究了1-苯基偶氮-2-萘酚(PN)与固定在CNT表面的DNA的相互作用, 结果表明PN与DNA的作用方式为嵌入作用;并且, PN能用作电化学检测DNA化学损伤的探针分子. 本文电化学检测DNA损伤的优点在于PN的氧化还原式量电位E0'≈0.1 V (vs. SCE, pH 5.5), 能有效降低其它电活性物质对DNA损伤电化学检测的干扰.

DNA-PDDA-CNT nanocomposites were fabricated by immobilizing DNA on the surface of single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNT) via poly(dimethyldiallylammonium chloride) (PDDA). The atomic force microscopy (AFM), ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis), Raman spectroscopy and impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were used to characterize the growth processes of the nanocomposites. The cyclic voltammetric results indicate that the interaction between 1-phenylazo-2-naphthol (PN) and the immobilized DNA is intercalative binding, and PN can be used as a probe for detection of DNA damage. PN seems to be an attractive probe for DNA damage analysis since its redox peak is at ca. 0.1 V (vs. SCE, pH 5.5), where interference should be minimal.

Key words: carbon nanotube, DNA, DNA damage, electrochemical detection
