Abstract:	Recently, the surface plasmon field-enhanced fluorescence spectroscopy (SPFS) was developed as a kinetic analysis and a detection method with dual- monitoring of the change of reflectivity and fluorescence signal for the interfacial phenomenon. A fundamental study of PNA and DNA interaction at the surface using surface plasmon fluorescence spectroscopy (SPFS) will be investigated in studies. Furthermore, several specific conditions to influence on PNA/DNA hybridization and affinity efficiency by monitoring reflective index changes and fluorescence variation at the same time will be considered. In order to identify the affinity degree of PNA/DNA hybridizaiton at the surface, the association constant (kon) and the dissociation constant (koff) will be obtained by titration experiment of various concentration of target DNA and kinetic investigation. In addition, for more enhancing the hybridization efficiency of PNA/DNA, a study of polarized electric field enhancement system will be introduced and performed in detail. DNA is well-known polyelectrolytes with naturally negative charged molecules in its structure. With polarized electrical treatment, applying DC field to the metal surface, which PNA probe would be immobilized at, negatively charged DNA molecules can be attracted by electromagnetic attraction force and manipulated to the close the surface area, and have more possibility to hybridize with probe PNA molecules by hydrogen bonding each corresponding base sequence. There are several major factors can be influenced on the hybridization efficiency.
