[0049] The specific process of S3 is as follows:

[0050] S3.1) Prepare a hydrogel prepolymer solution and drop the obtained hydrogel prepolymer solution into the superhydrophilic point;

[0051] S3.2) Irradiate with ultraviolet light at a wavelength of 365nm for 8-15s to form a PEG hydrogel microsphere array.

[0060] Example 1

[0061] 6.5 g of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) was dissolved in 53.25 g of ethanol and mixed with 0.0125 g of concentrated HCl solution to prepare an acid-catalyzed silica sol. The solution was left in a sealed flask, stirred for 4 hours, and aged at room temperature for 4 days. 2 g of SiO2 was dispersed in 80 mL of ethanol and stirred for 2 hours. Then, 20 μL of acid-catalyzed silica sol (ASCC) was added to the mixed solution, and the mixture was stirred for another 1 hour to obtain a SiO2 suspension. The glass slide was ultrasonically cleaned successively in acetone, ethanol, and deionized water, and then dried with nitrogen. After plasma treatment, the glass was repeatedly dipped into the above SiO2 suspension coating 10 times. The glass was then immersed in a 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyltrichlorosilane (FDTS) solution (FDTS: anhydrous toluene = 1:1000) at room temperature for 30 minutes, rinsed with ethanol, and cured at 80°C for 20 minutes. FDTS-modified superhydrophobic substrates are treated with oxygen plasma through a photomask for 30 seconds to form superwetting microchips, such as... Figure 2 As shown.

[0062] The hydrogel prepolymer solution comprises: polyethylene glycol, polyethylene glycol diacrylate, deionized water, acrylate-polyethylene glycol-carboxyl aqueous solution, and 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-phenylacetone ethanol solution, with a volume ratio of 4:2:2:1:1; the molecular weight of polyethylene glycol is 200; the molecular weight of polyethylene glycol diacrylate is 700; the concentration of the acrylate-polyethylene glycol-carboxyl aqueous solution is 20 mM, the molecular weight of the acrylate-polyethylene glycol-carboxyl solution is 3400; and the concentration of the 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-phenylacetone ethanol solution is 655 mM.

[0063] Add 2 μL of the above hydrogel prepolymer to the superhydrophilic point. The entire platform is then cooled using 365 nm UV (60 mW / cm²). 2 Irradiation for 10 seconds forms a PEG hydrogel microsphere array. The prepared hydrogel array is kept in deionized water or a high-humidity environment until use (e.g., Figure 3 (As shown).

[0064] Hydrogel arrays prepared by rinsing with water were found to be firmly fixed on a superhydrophobic-superhydrophilic substrate, demonstrating the robustness of the hydrogel arrays. (e.g.) Figure 4 (As shown)

[0065] A capture probe (TAACG TGTGT TTGCA CTATG CTTTC A-FAM) was simultaneously loaded onto the hydrogel surface along with graphene oxide. Graphene oxide has proven to be one of the best choices for label-free quenchers in constructing bioelectronic devices and advanced biosensors due to its large surface area, physiological stability, and the ability to quench fluorescence via remote FRET. Single-stranded DNA interacts with graphene oxide through π-π stacking interactions, while double-stranded DNA is readily detached from the graphene oxide surface. FAM-labeled single-stranded DNA (FAM-DNA) was drop-added onto the hydrogel along with graphene oxide to serve as a detection platform. By selecting single-stranded DNA as the target probe, it hybridizes with FAM-DNA to form a double-stranded FAM-DNA / target DNA structure. The sequence of the target probe is AATATTGAAAGCAGATTGCAAAACCAAGTAGCGGGTGGGTGGGT GGG. Simultaneously, the degree of fluorescence quenching with increasing graphene oxide concentration and real-time data of fluorescence quenching were measured. The results showed that the best quenching results were achieved at a graphene oxide concentration of 80 μg / mL, and the maximum quenching value was reached at a quenching time of 20 minutes. Figure 5 (As shown). Fluorescence signals were detected using a fluorescence microscope, and fluorescence curves were plotted. All DNA strands were purchased from Sangon Biotech Co., Ltd.

[0066] When no target probe is present on the platform, FAM-DNA adsorbs onto graphene oxide, causing fluorescence quenching. Upon addition of the target probe, the formed double strand detaches from the graphene oxide, and fluorescence rapidly recovers. The feasibility of the DNA detection platform was validated by fluorescence responses of target DNA at different concentrations (50, 75, 100, 150, 200, 300, 400 nM) and for single-base mismatched target DNA (MT1), two-base mismatched target DNA (MT2), and three-base mismatched target DNA (MT3). Fluorescence intensity increased linearly with target DNA concentration from 50 nM to 400 nM, with a logarithmic increase in fluorescence recovery intensity. Simultaneously, compared to target DNA (T), MT1, MT2, and MT3 showed lower fluorescence responses at the same concentration. These results indicate that the sensor has good specificity for detecting target DNA. (e.g.) Figure 6 (As shown)

[0067] Example 2

[0068] Two substrates each of conductive glass and ordinary glass were used, and each substrate underwent the same treatment. The glass slides were ultrasonically cleaned sequentially in acetone, ethanol, and deionized water, and then dried with nitrogen. After plasma treatment, the glass was repeatedly dipped into the SiO2 suspension coating 10 times. The glass was then immersed in an FDTS solution (FDTS: anhydrous toluene = 1:1000) at room temperature for 30 minutes, rinsed with ethanol, and cured at 80°C for 20 minutes. The FDTS-modified superhydrophobic substrate was then treated with oxygen plasma through a photomask for 30 seconds to form a superwetting microchip.

[0069] The hydrogel prepolymer solution comprises: polyethylene glycol, polyethylene glycol diacrylate, deionized water, an aqueous solution of acrylate-polyethylene glycol-carboxyl groups, and an ethanol solution of 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-phenylacetone, with a volume ratio of 4:2:2:1:1. The molecular weight of polyethylene glycol is 200; the molecular weight of polyethylene glycol diacrylate is 700; the concentration of the acrylate-polyethylene glycol-carboxyl group aqueous solution is 20 mM, and the molecular weight of the acrylate-polyethylene glycol-carboxyl group is 3400; the concentration of the 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-phenylacetone ethanol solution is 655 mM. 2 μL of the above hydrogel prepolymer solution is added to the superhydrophilic point. The entire platform is tested using 365 nm UV (60 mW / cm²). 2 Irradiation for 10 seconds forms a PEG hydrogel microsphere array. The prepared hydrogel array is kept in deionized water or a high-humidity environment until use (e.g., Figure 3 (As shown).

[0070] Hydrogel arrays prepared by rinsing with water were found to be firmly fixed on a superhydrophobic-superhydrophilic substrate, demonstrating the robustness of the hydrogel arrays. (e.g.) Figure 4As shown, the capture probe FAM-DNA (TAACG TGTGT TTGCA CTATGCTTTC A-FAM) was simultaneously loaded onto the hydrogel surface along with graphene oxide. Graphene oxide has proven to be one of the best choices for label-free quenchers in constructing bioelectronic devices and advanced biosensors due to its large surface area, physiological stability, and the advantage of quenching fluorescence via remote FRET. Single-stranded DNA interacts with graphene oxide through π-π stacking interactions, while double-stranded DNA is readily detached from the graphene oxide surface. FAM-labeled single-stranded DNA (FAM-DNA) was loaded onto the hydrogel along with graphene oxide as a pristine platform. By selecting single-stranded DNA as the target probe, hybridization with FAM-DNA can form a double-stranded FAM-DNA / target DNA structure. The sequence of the target probe is AATATTGAAAGCAGATTGCAAAACCAAGTAGCGGGTGGGTGGGGG. Simultaneously, the degree of fluorescence quenching with increasing graphene oxide concentration and real-time data of fluorescence quenching were measured. The results showed that the best quenching results were achieved at a graphene oxide concentration of 80 μg / mL, and the maximum quenching value was reached at a quenching time of 20 minutes.

[0071] When no target probe is present on the platform, FAM-DNA adsorbs onto graphene oxide, causing fluorescence quenching. Upon addition of the target probe, the formed double strand detaches from the graphene oxide, and fluorescence rapidly recovers. The feasibility of the DNA detection platform was validated by fluorescence responses of target DNA at different concentrations (50, 75, 100, 150, 200, 300, 400 nM) and for single-base mismatched target DNA (MT1), two-base mismatched target DNA (MT2), and three-base mismatched target DNA (MT3).
