Abstract: | The adsorption and release behavior of single-stranded DNA-wrapped single-walled carbon nanotubes (ssDNA-w-SWCNTs) on alkylthiol self-assembled monolayer (SAM) surface was systematically characterized by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Fast electron transfer between bare Au electrode and redox species blocked by the alkylthiol SAM can be restored by SWCNTs or ssDNA-w-SWCNTs. The release of ssDNA-w-SWCNTs is carried out by positive or negative desorption potential. SWCNTs/SAM or ssDNA-w-SWCNTs/SAM is completely removed from Au surface at +0.90 V or -1.40 V (vs. 3.0 M KCl|Ag|AgCl). The controlled release of SWCNTs/SAM and ssDNA-w-SWCNTs/SAM holds great promise for gene delivering. |
