Abstract:
A convenient method is presented that employs a DNA machine for protein biomarker detection. The detection limit is 400 times lower compared to the method without a DNA machine. This study provides a promising method that could realize most protein biomarker detections without the corresponding aptamers, using a DNA machine for signal amplification.
