Attaching the Thiolated DNA

SSMCC-Activated AuNPs@SiO2-NH2(aq*)+HS-DNA(aq)→Crosslinked S-DNA and AuNPs@SiO2-NH(aq*)<br.> '*'denotes colloidal system<br.>

Chemicals Needed and Safety

  • Ethanol
  • 15μL APS ((3-aminopropyl)trimethoxysilane)
  • 1mg SSMCC (sulfosuccinimidyl-4-N-maleimidomethyl cyclohexane-1-carboxylate)
  • Potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.4
  • Sodium phosphate buffer, pH 9
  • 150μL Silica-coated AuNPs
  • 50μL of 20μM HS-DNA

Procedure

  • Combine 150μL AuNPs@SiO2, 15μL APS and 235μL ethanol
  • Vortex solution for 30 minutes
  • Rinse sample three times by centrifugation at 7700g (9081.99rpm) with ethanol and two times with sodium phosphate buffer, pH 9 (SPB)
  • Make a separate solution of 1 mg sulfo-SMCC in 400μL of SPB
  • Add SSMCC solution to AuNP solution
  • Vortex for 1 hour
  • Rinse twice with SPB
  • Rinse twice with potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.4 (KPB)
  • Combine sample with 50μL 20μM HS-DNA
  • Vortex for 1 hour
  • Rinse three times with KPB
  • Re-suspend in 150μL KPB

Volumes may be doubled to avoid waste of SSMCC by using only 1 of 2mg.<br.>
