Development of an Electrochemical Sensing Technique for Rapid Genotyping of Hepatitis B Virus

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To develop a convenient; sensitive; accurate; and economical technique for genotyping of hepatitis B viruses (HBVs). METHODS: The mercapto-modified B1; B2; C1; and C2-specific genotyping probes consisted of two probes for each HBV genotype that served as a double verification system. These probes were fixed on the surface of No. 1; 2; 3; and 4 gold electrodes; respectively; via Au-S bonds. Different charge generated by the binding of …
