The phrase "auxiliary probe" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to scientific research, engineering, or technology, where it refers to a secondary or supporting probe used for measurement or analysis.
Example: "The researchers utilized an auxiliary probe to gather additional data during the experiment."
Alternatives: "secondary probe" or "supporting probe".
This work demonstrates that employing an auxiliary probe which exists nearby the capture probe can enhance the sensitivity of the ECL aptasensor.
A novel electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) aptasensor for ultrasensitive detection of thrombin incorporating an auxiliary probe was designed by employing specific anti-thrombin aptamer as a capture probe and a ruthenium II) complex-tagged reporter probe as an ECL probe and an auxiliary probe to assist the ECL probe close to the surface of the electrode.
In design, single-strand DNA labeled with methylene blue (MB) was used as signal probe, and auxiliary probe was designed to hybridize with two different regions of signal probe.
By means of a functional auxiliary probe pair and a versatile initiator sequence, a linear DNA concatemer structure can be formed via spontaneous and continuous polymerization of DNA oligomers in the presence of target sequence.
The ECL aptasensor was fabricated by self-assembling a thiolated capture probe on the surface of gold electrode and then hybridizing the ECL probe with the capture probe, and further self-assembling the auxiliary probe.
Local gas holdup data were obtained from the values of light absorbance measured by the first probe and the average values of bubble chord length (vertical bubble dimension) were then calculated from respective values of local gas holdup and bubble frequency data determined at given working conditions by the auxiliary probe.
Two auxiliary probes were designed and used to long-range self-assemble DNA nanostructure.
Three hairpin auxiliary probes (H1, H2, and H3) are designed with signal-stranded DNA (ssDNA) sticky ends which could effectively stabilize AuNPs against salt-induced aggregation.
To develop a new MB sensing system and simply the signal amplification design, we herein attempted to propose a multifunctional integrated MB (MI-MB) for the polymerization amplification detection of target DNA via introducing a G-rich fragment into the loop of MB without using any exogenous auxiliary oligonucleotide probe.
Without target DNA, auxiliary hairpin probes are stable in solution.
Herein, a novel enzyme-free and label-free ultrasensitive electrochemical DNA biosensing platform for the detection of target DNA and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) was firstly proposed, in which three auxiliary DNA probes were ingeniously designed to construct the dendritic DNA concatamer via HCR strategy and used as hexaammineruthenium III) chloride (RuHex) carrier for signal amplification.
