Abstract
Adsorption of a fluorophore-labeled DNA probe by graphene oxide (GO) produces a sensor that gives fluorescence enhancement in the presence of its complementary DNA (cDNA). While many important analytical applications have been demonstrated, it remains unclear how DNA hybridization takes place in the presence of GO, hindering further rational improvement of sensor design. For the first time, we report a set of experimental evidence to reveal a new mechanism involving nonspecific probe displacement followed by hybridization in the solution phase. In addition, we show quantitatively that only a small portion of the added cDNA molecules undergo hybridization while most are adsorbed by GO to play the displacement role. Therefore, it is possible to improve signaling by raising the hybridization efficiency. A key innovation herein is using probes and cDNA with a significant difference in their adsorption energy by GO. This study offers important mechanistic insights into the GO/DNA system. At the same time, it provides simple experimental methods to study the biomolecular reaction dynamics and mechanism on a surface, which may be applied for many other biosensor systems.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
