Selectivity of detection of the DNA equivalent of miRNA-126, i.e. DmiRNA-126. a The target molecule with three different detection molecules. 8 bpD is a detection molecule with 8-bp perfect match to the target. 9 bpMM is a detection molecule with 8-bp perfect match and a single mismatch in the middle. 9 bpD is a detection molecule with 9-bp perfect match with the DmiRNA-126 target. Perfect match is indicated in blue and mismatch is indicated in red. b Detection of 100 pM DmiRNA-126 with 8 bpD, 9 bpMM, and 9 bpD detection molecules. The used capture molecule on the particle has 11-bp complementarity to the target. Particle switching activities were recorded before and after supply of 100 pM DmiRNA-126 target. c Particle switching activity using 9 bpD detection molecule and different target oligonucleotide sequences. Sequentially, particle-switching activities were recorded when there was no target injected, when 100 pM target with a random DNA sequence was injected, and finally when 100 pM DmiRNA-126 target was injected. Error bars are standard deviations of two independent measurements with 5 min duration
