Twenty-bases long NH2-modified DNA and PNA probes specific to a pathogen (Mycobacterium tuberculosis) were covalently immobilized onto a polyaniline (PANI)/Au electrode to detect nucleic acid hybridization with complementary, one-base mismatch and noncomplementary targets within 30 s using Methylene Blue. The PNA-PANI/Au electrode exhibits improved specificity (1000 times) and detection limit (0.125 x 10(-18) M) as compared to that of the DNA-PANI/Au electrode (2.5 x 10(-18) M). These PNA-PANI/Au electrodes can be utilized for detection of hybridization with the complementary sequence in 5 min sonicated M. tuberculosis genomic DNA within 1 min of hybridization time. These DNA-PANI/Au and PNA-PANI/Au electrodes can be used 6-7 and 13-15 times, respectively.
