Disclosed is an amplification/detection kit comprising: a sample pad on which a PCR reaction solution is placed; a transfer pad positioned in contact with the sample pad; a reaction pad into which the PCR reaction solution flowing from the sample pad through the transfer pad flows and which includes a gold thin film deposited on a first surface; and a sealing tape configured to cover and seal a first surface of the transfer pad and a first surface of the reaction pad.

Amplification/detection kit, photothermal PCR amplification method and microorganism detection method using the same

The present invention relates to a reusable optical fiber aptasensor using a photo-thermal effect, and more particularly, to a reusable optical fiber aptasensor using white light and a laser. The aptasensor includes a light emitting unit for selectively emitting one of white light and a laser, a sensor unit including a plurality of aptamers, a plurality of gold nanorods, and a silver mirror, a detector for analyzing a wavelength of inputted light, and an optical fiber for connecting the light emitting unit with the sensor unit, and connecting the detector with the sensor unit, wherein the light emitted from the light emitting unit is totally reflected in the optical fiber and irradiated to the sensor unit, and light reflected from the silver mirror of the sensor unit is irradiated to the detector. Accordingly, the aptasensor easily measures concentration of a target material in a sample using the optical fiber.
