Abstract:
Nanopore analysis has emerged as the simplest single-molecule technique. We combined DNA probes with a nanopore electrochemical sensor for the rapid and sensitive detection of pathogenic DNA. The novel nanopore biosensor allows the single-base discrimination and detection of picomolar DNA in serum samples.
