Strain promoted azide alkyne cycloaddition, an efficient surface functionalization strategy for microRNA magnetic separation by Djamila Kechkeche, Sirine El Mousli, Claire Poujouly, Emilie Secret, Vincent Dupuis, Isabelle Le Potier, Marie-Emmanuelle Goriot, Julien Siracusa, Sébastien Banzet, Jean Gamby, Jean-Michel Siaugue

“…The strain-promoted azide alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC click chemistry) proved to be the most efficient functionalization strategy. Optimization of the complementary DNA grafting protocol, carried out by varying the ratios between the quantities of dibenzocyclooctyne groups and DNA and between the quantities of DNA and MNP, revealed on the one hand that the quantity of DNA grafted per nanoparticle could be finely controlled, and on the other hand that the grafting on the MNP’s surface of an excessive quantity of dibenzocyclooctyne groups led to a reduction in grafting yields. …”
