DNA/AuNP Attachment

1) Prepare 2 solutions containing:

  • 250uL 4.45uM thiol DNA + 250uL 100mM DTT in 4% TEA

2) React 10 minutes and extract DNA using ethyl acetate

3) Prepare the following two solutions

A) 240.7uL 29.67nM AuNP + 240.7uL 2.225uM DNA + 18.7uL sodium citrate

  • Final concentrations: [AuNP]=14.28nM, [DNA]=1.071uM, [sodium citrate]=10mM

B) 157.5uL 29.67nM auNP + 157.5uL 2.225uM DNA + 35uL sodium citrate

  • Final Concentrations: [AuNP]= 13.35nM, [DNA]=1.0014uM, [sodium citrate]=10mM

4) React 10 minutes

5) Centrifuge for 4 minutes at 7000rpm, redisperse in 50mM HEPES buffer

Silica Coating Procedure: Part 1

  • Prior to addition of TES to AuNP, MHA must be attached to AuNP

1) Dissolve 0.0144g MHA in 5mL PBS, combine with 5mL AuNPs

2) Stir overnight
