Definitions
- Biosensor biosensor array, method for producing an electrode of a biosensor, method for producing a biosensor
- the invention relates to a biosensor, biosensor arrays, methods for producing an electrode of a biosensor and methods for producing a biosensor.
- Such a biosensor such a biosensor array and such methods are known from [1].
- the sensor 200 has two electrodes 201,
- Electrode connections 204, 205 are connected to the electrodes 201, 202, to which the electrical potential applied to the electrode 201, 202 can be supplied.
- the electrodes 201, 202 are arranged as planar electrodes.
- DNA probe molecules 206 are immobilized on each electrode 201, 202 (cf. FIG. 2a). The immobilization can take place according to the so-called gold-sulfur coupling. Alternatively, the immobilization can be carried out using a material coated on the electrode.
- the analyte to be examined, for example an electrolyte 207, is applied to the electrodes 201, 202.
- the electrolyte 207 contains DNA strands 208 with a sequence that is complementary to the sequence of the DNA probe molecules 206, these DNA strands 208 hybridize with the DNA probe molecules 206 (cf. FIG. 2b).
- Hybridization of a DNA probe molecule 206 and a DNA strand 208 only takes place if the sequences of the respective DNA probe molecule 206 and the corresponding DNA strand 208 are complementary to one another. If not If so, no hybridization takes place.
- a DNA sequence S ondenmolekül a given only in a specific location, he d, namely, the DNA strand having complementary sequence to bind respectively, ie with it to re hybridization.
- the value of the impedance between the electrodes 201 and 202 changes, as can be seen from FIG. 2b.
- This changed impedance is obtained by applying an alternating voltage with an amplitude of approximately 50 mV to the electrode connections 204 , 205 and the resulting current by means of a connected measuring device (not shown).
- the capacitive component of the impedance between the electrodes 201, 202 decreases. This is due to the fact that both the DNA probe molecules 206 and the DNA strands 208, which may hybridize with the DNA probe molecules 206, do not are conductive and thus clearly shield the respective electrodes 201, 202 to a certain extent electrically.
- the dimension of the electrodes and the distances between the electrodes are of the order of the length of the molecules to be detected, i.e. of DNA strands 208 or below, for example in the range of 200 n and below.
- a further procedure for examining the electrolyte with regard to the existence of a DNA strand with a predetermined sequence is known from [2].
- the DNA strands are labeled with the desired sequence and based on the reflective properties of the labeled molecules their existence is determined.
- light in the visible wavelength range is radiated onto the electrolyte and the light reflected by the electrolyte, in particular by the marked DNA strand to be detected, is detected.
- the reflection behavior that is to say in particular on the basis of the detected, reflected light rays, it is determined whether the DNA strand to be detected with the correspondingly predetermined sequence is contained in the electrolyte or not.
- This procedure is very complex since a very precise knowledge of the reflection behavior of the corresponding DNA strand is required and a marking of the DNA strand before the start of the method is also necessary. Furthermore, a very precise adjustment of the detection means for detecting the reflected light rays is necessary so that the reflected light rays can be detected at all.
- da ascene technology for producing an electrical metal contact for a field effect transistor is known from [5].
- a process for producing a Metallization for a Feld safetransi ⁇ stor known in a semiconductor body with a web. With this method, a gold surface is applied over the entire surface of the surface of the semiconductor body. A gap is etched at the edges of the web on the sides of the web into the gold porch which has grown porously. The base width of the gap is determined by the duration of the etching process.
- planar electrodes known from [1] can be seen in particular in that they have a relatively low sensitivity with regard to the electrical detection of the macromolecular biopolymers, which can easily lead to falsifications in the measurement result due to even minor external disturbances, for example due to noise ,
