Surface Modification of CgA-Ab 1-pyrenebutanoic acid succinimidyl ester Steric effect Tween 20 Hydrophobic- hydrophobic interaction -stacking R. J. Chen, Y. Zhang, D. Wang, H. Dai, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 123, 3838 (2001). R. J . Chen, H. Dai, Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci., 100, 4984 (2003).
Successful Modification of CgA-Ab on SWCNT-FET Change of I-Vg Curves: • Hysteresis width • Modification coating • 2. Threshold voltage (Vth) • Q = C Vth • 3. Transconductance (dI/dVg) Scattering effect Small, 3, 1350 (2007)

Sensing mechanism Chemical gating effect: Isoelectric point of CgA (pI ~ 4.5) CgA is negatively charged in PBS buffer at pH = 7.4. Accordingly, the bindings of CgA with the CgA-Ab modified SWCNT-FET have enhanced the conductivity in the p-type semiconductive device due to a negative gating effect. Thining the Schottky barrier :

Calcium image 實驗時, 將Fura-2 AM溶于無血清培養液中, 終濃度4 mmol/L, 37℃裝載細胞30 min。開始實驗前, 用細胞外液洗去細胞外Fura-2 AM, 將細胞在細胞外液中靜置10 min, 使其適應和穩定以及Fura-2的完全去酯化。實驗中用340 nm和380 nm兩個不同入射波長的紫外光交替照射細胞, 觀察相應波長下Fura-2的發射光強度。以340 nm和 380 nm下螢光強度的比值反映[Ca2+]i 水平。入射波長下的螢光強度信號經數模信號轉換器轉換后輸入到計算機中, 用Axoscope8.2記錄兩個相應入射波長時的Fura-2螢光強度, 以二者的比值反映[Ca2+]i變化。 [Ca2+]i記錄所用細胞外液成分為Loading buffer (pH=7.4)。 Biol.
