Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, DNA materials are more susceptible to the influence of the environment than inorganic materials, especially when applied to the human body, they are susceptible to structural changes due to interference from temperature, ion concentration, and other impurities, resulting in changes in their own excellent properties.
At present, there have been many research results in this field, such as the DNA origami structure can only maintain a stable structure for about 20 hours in serum; the rise of temperature will cause its structure to dissociate; the increase or decrease of ion concentration will cause structural changes ; Exposure to ultraviolet light or ozone environment will also affect its structural stability
So how much does environmental change affect structural stability? There are many qualitative studies, but there is no quantitative method.

The method has the advantages of being precise, simple, simple in evaluating operation and capable of meeting the application requirements of the DNA nanometer origami structure in future.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for accurately quantifying the structural integrity of DNA origami with fluorescence, in particular to using Eva Green fluorescent dye as a quantitative reagent to accurately quantify the structural integrity of the DNA triangular origami structure when the environment changes through fluorescence intensity. The invention belongs to the field of nano biological material and biological detection. Background technique [0002] DNA origami structure has received extensive attention due to its precise and controllable structure, easy modification, and good biocompatibility. In recent years, studies have found that the DNA double helix has special properties such as electrical conductivity and pH responsiveness. The DNA double helix can control the structural size accuracy to the order of angstroms through the principle of complementary base pairing (10 -10 ), its 3' and 5' ends are easy to modify various chemical groups, ...
