This document discloses a novel class of compounds for inhibiting bacterial growth and treating bacterial infection. The compounds target a key step of the futalosine pathway and therefore are effective for the selective inhibition of certain bacterial species and genera with reduced side effect in comparison with conventional antibiotics.

A linker of bioprobes, suitable for immobilizing a bioprobe on a chip substrate of a sensor, includes SH(CH)n-NH2, SH(CH)n-COOH, SH(CH)n-SH, (OH)m-(CH)n-COOH or (OH)m-(CH)n-NH2, having a carbon number of 6 or more, m and n being integers greater than 1. When an average surface roughness (Ra) of the chip substrate is greater than 250 nm, coverage of the linker on the chip substrate is 40%-80%. A further linker of bioprobes, includes SH(CH)n-NH2, SH(CH)n-COOH, SH(CH)n-SH, (OH)m-(CH)n-COOH or (OH)m-(CH)n-NH2, having a carbon number of less than 6, m and n being integers greater than 1. When an average surface roughness (Ra) of the chip substrate is less than 250 nm, coverage of the linker on the chip substrate is 65%-100%. The optimal carbon chain length of the linker and the coverage are realized for substrates of various roughnesses, and grasping ability of an electrochemical sensor chip for a detected object are enhanced.
