    Author: Wu Y, Li Y, Han H, Zhao C, Zhang X.
    Journal: Anal Biochem; 2019 Jan 01; 564-565():16-20. PubMed ID: 30312618.
    Abstract:
    A sensitive surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) approach has been developed for detection of microRNA (miRNA) based on target-triggered dual signal amplification including strand displancement amplification (SDA) and hybridization chain reaction (HCR). With the assistant of polymerase and nicking endonuclease (NEase), target miRNA combines with the single stranded template DNA to generate a great amount of trigger DNA which can induce HCR. Coupled the dual cycle amplification of SDA and HCR with the dual enhancement of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), a low detection limit of 0.5 fM for miRNA is obtained using the proposed strategy. With high sensitivity, universality, rapid analysis, and high selectivity, this method has a great potential for detecting biomolecules with trace amounts in bioanalysis and clinical biomedicine.
