The optimization of avidin concentration for coating the PCR tubes. Avidin was diluted in PBS buffer to a final concentration ranging from 0.1, 1, 10, 50, and 100 μg/mL, respectively. Biotin-HRP was added to monitor the amount of avidin in the PCR tubes. H2O2 substrate was used and 1 N HCl was used to stop and read the optimum density (O.D.) at 450 nm.
