Diamond has a number of advantages for biomaterial detection, such as its wide potential window, simple functionalization, physiochemical stability, and biocompatibility. In addition, the diamond Solution-Gate Field-Effect Transistors (SGFETs) on the hydrogen-terminated diamond surface, which includes a conductive layer of p-type without doping, is suitable due to the lack of passivation layers and membranes on the channel surface. Here, we investigate simple and direct immobilization methods of DNAs for detection of single-mismatch oligonucleotide. The specific hybridization with 100nM concentrations of 21 base pair DNA can be clearly detected by two methods, fluorescence microscopy and diamond SGFETs. A single-mismatch oligonucleotide was successfully distinguished on diamond by controlling various factors, such as intrinsic hybridization affinity of target oligonucleotides including a single mismatch and negative surface charge of oxidized diamond surface in real-time detection.
