| This work deals with the design of a high sensitivity DNA sequence detector using a 50 MHz quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) electronic oscillator circuit. The oscillator circuitry is based on Miller topology, which is able to work in damping media. Calibration and experimental study of frequency noise are carried out, finding that the designed sensor has a resolution of 7.1 ng/cm(2) in dynamic conditions (with circulation of liquid). Then the oscillator is proved as DNA biosensor. Results show that the system is able to detect the presence of complementary target DNAs in a solution with high selectivity and sensitivity. DNA target concentrations higher of 50 ng/mL can be detected. |

| The scientific question addressed in this work is: what hides beneath first order kinetic constant k (s(-1)) measured for hybridization of a DNA target on a biosensor surface. Kinetics hybridization curves were established with a 27 MHz quartz microbalance (9 MHz, third harmonic) biosensor, constituted of a 20-base probe monolayer deposited on a gold covered quartz surface. Kinetics analysis, by a known two-step adsorption-hybridization mechanism, is well appropriate to fit properly hybridization kinetics curves, for complementary 20-base to 40-base targets over two concentration decades. It was found that the K-1 (M-1) adsorption constant, relevant to the first step, concerns an equilibrium between non hybridized targets and hybridized pre-complex and... |

| A strategy to design DNA-biosensors by grafting probe-target duplex onto a 27 MHz quartz crystal microbalance gold surface is presented in this work. The idea that removing the DNA target after duplex grafting yields to a well accessible probe, and therefore to efficient target recognition, is investigated. Unfortunately, hybridization efficiency measured using such a straightaway protocol is equal to 15%, which is feeble by comparison with the 31% hybridization efficiency measured for biosensors designed with single-stranded probe. Successive DNA biosensors are designed in this work, taking into account phenomena that occur specifically in an interfacial environment, like non specific adsorption or exchange reactions between adsorbed molecules.
