Abstract:
This study presents a rapid and low-cost amplicon detection method in which amplicons are attached to magnetic microbeads, suspended in deionized water, and subjected to a magnetic field on a hydrophilic surface resulting in the circular agglomeration of amplicon-conjugated microbeads, visible to the naked eye.
