Abstract
This study introduces a miniaturized fiber-optic Fabry-Perot (FP) interferometric biosensor, distinctively engineered for cost-effective, rapid, and quantitative DNA sequence detection. By leveraging the interference patterns generated within a Fabry-Perot microcavity, our sensor precisely monitors DNA hybridization events in real-time. We have verified the sensor's biofunctionalization via fluorescent labeling and have extensively validated its performance through numerous hybridization and regeneration cycles with 1 μM single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) solutions. Demonstrating remarkable repeatability and reusability, the sensor effectively discerns ssDNA sequences exhibiting varying degrees of mismatches. Its ability to accurately distinguish between sequences with 2 and 7 mismatches underscores its potential as a valuable asset for swift DNA analysis. Characterized by its rapid response time-typically yielding results within 6 minutes-and its adeptness at mismatch identification, our biosensor stands as a potent tool for facilitating accelerated DNA diagnostics and research.
