A 153-mer target DNA was amplified using ethynyl ferrocene dATP and a tailed forward primer resulting in a duplex with a single-stranded DNA tail for hybridization to a surface-tethered probe. A thiolated probe containing the sequence complementary to the tail as well as a 15 polythimine vertical spacer with a (CH2)6 spacer was immobilized on the surface of a gold electrode and hybridized to the ferrocene-modified complementary strand.
