Femtomolar single‐base mismatch discrimination : A nanoparticle‐enhanced surface plasmon resonance imaging method for ultrasensitive detection of the selective hybridization between a peptide nucleic acid (PNA) oligomer and its complementary single‐stranded DNA target is described. The method allows a 1 f M sensitivity in single‐base mismatch discrimination with only 150 zeptomoles of the target molecules.
