The invention relates to a self-assembled three-dimensional ball-flower type bimodal
DNA sensor based on a rolling ring amplification technology, which is used for detecting target
DNA of microorganisms in an early
fouling stage. The sensor consists of a lock ring probe, target
DNA (
Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid) and a fluorescent nanogold probe. When the target DNA exists, the locked loop probe specifically recognizes the target DNA, rolling circle amplification is carried out under the action of T4
DNA ligase and phi29
DNA polymerase, and a stable nano flower ball structure is formed through self-
assembly. One end of the fluorescent
signal probe modifies the fluorescent nanogold, and the other end of the fluorescent
signal probe is complementary with a rolling circle amplification product to form a complete sensor after combination. The
fluorescence spectrophotometer is used for measuring a
fluorescence signal, the intensity of the
fluorescence signal is positively correlated with the concentration of the target DNA, and qualitative and quantitative detection of the target DNA is realized. The nanometer flower ball structure enables a fluorescence signal to be enhanced and a
color signal to be weakened, and self-calibration is achieved through comparison of the fluorescence signal and the
color signal. The specific sequence of the
sulfate reducing
bacteria is taken as the
target gene, so that the kit has
high selectivity and anti-interference capability, and is suitable for
rapid detection of early-stage
fouling microorganisms.
