In this paper, we reported a system for the ultrasensitive fluorescence detection of cytokeratin fragment antigen 21–1 DNA (CYFRA21-1 DNA) for the early diagnosis of lung cancer. The approach used electron transfer atom transfer radical polymerization (ARGET-ATRP) with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) as the metal ligand. Firstly, thiolated peptide nucleic acid (PNA) was linked to aminated magnetic beads solutions (MBs) by a cross-linking agent and then hybridized with CYFRA21-1 DNA (tDNA). Subsequently, Zr4+ was introduced into the MBs by conjugating with the phosphate group of tDNA, and the initiator of ARGET-ATRP was introduced into via phosphate-Zr4+-carboxylate chemistry. | Nội dung Text CuBr2 EDTA-mediated ATRP for ultrasensitive fluorescence detection of lung cancer DNA
