  • Title: Molecular recognition by contact angle: proof of concept with DNA hybridization.
    Author: Bergese P, Oliviero G, Colombo I, Depero LE.
    Journal: Langmuir; 2009 Apr 21; 25(8):4271-3. PubMed ID: 19301878.
    Abstract:
    A molecular recognition reaction supported by a solid-phase assay drives a specific change in the solid-solution interfacial tension. This prompts contact angle (CA) analysis, being a straightforward route to evaluate this property, to play the unedited role of label-free probe of the reaction. The concept is proven by the successful recognition of DNA hybridization and is further supported by the agreement between the results and the underpinning thermodynamics.
