ABSTRACT:
An electric field amplified oligonucleotide ligase analysis includes combining a plurality of oligonucleotide probes carried on a support at a binding site with a solution including a target molecule, a plurality of oligonucleotide segments including a marker and ligase. A first electric field surrounding the plurality of oligonucleotide probes is generated to attract the target molecule to a first of the plurality of oligonucleotide probes to which it hybridizes. A first of the plurality of oligonucleotide segments also hybridizes with the target molecule and covalently bonds to the first oligonucleotide probe due to the presence of ligase in the solution. The target molecule is separated by generating a second electric field surrounding the plurality of oligonucleotide probes. The generation of the electric fields are alternately repeated to amplify the hybridization signal.
