Thiol-modified single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) attaches to surfaces for hybridization. This method works on any material and allows for efficient surface rewriting.

Area of Science:

  • Biomaterials Science
  • Surface Chemistry
  • Molecular Biology

Background:

  • Immobilizing nucleic acids onto solid supports is crucial for various biotechnological applications.
