There has been great progress in the development of fluorescence biosensors based on quantum dots (QDs) for the detection of lead ions. However, most methods are detec...
A general, overarching theme in nanotechnology is the integration of multiple disparate fields to realize novel or expanded functionalities. Here, we present a graphen...
The androgen receptor-transcriptional intermediary factor 2 (AR-TIF2) positional protein-protein interaction (PPI) biosensor assay described herein combines physiologi...
Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causing agent of tuberculosis, comes second only after HIV on the list of infectious agents slaughtering many worldwide. Due to the lim...
Recognition of the sequence of human genome sequence is vital to address malfunctions occurring at molecular, cellular and tissue levels and requires a great deal of t...
We isolated a bacterial isolate (F7) from potable water. The strain was identified as Mesorhizobium sp. by 16S rDNA gene phylogenetic analysis and screened for N-acyl ...
Reduction-oxidation-sensitive green fluorescent proteins (roGFPs) have been demonstrated to be valuable tools in sensing cellular redox changes in mammalian cells and ...
Biosensing relies on the detection of molecules and their specific interactions. It is therefore highly desirable to develop transducers exhibiting ultimate detection ...
Here, a biosensor based on a quadruplex-forming aptamer for the determination of potassium ion (K(+)) is presented. The aptamer was used as a molecular recognition ele...
An electrochemical biosensor based on functional composite nanofibers for hybridization detection of specific K-ras gene that is highly associated with colorectal canc...
A capacitive biosensor based on an interdigitated electrode (IDE) with nanoislands was developed for label-free detection of antigen-antibody interactions. To enable s...
cGMP-dependent protein kinase I (PKGI) plays an important role in regulating how cGMP specifies vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) phenotype. Although studies indicate ...
Due to its low growth rate and its fastidious nature, Mycobacterium tuberculosis is difficult to identify. Its rapid and sensitive detection is, however, critical for ...
Widespread environmental antiandrogen contamination has been associated with negative impacts on biodiversity and human health. In particular, many pesticides are anti...
A "signal-on" photoelectrochemical sensing strategy for selective determination of Pb(2+) is designed on the basis of the combination of Pb(2+)-induced conformational ...
It has recently been appreciated that the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R), a prototypic member of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily, also functions as a...
Using CdS QD-tagged mercury-specific oligonucleotides, a novel folding-based photoelectrochemical sensor has been successfully fabricated for reagentless and highly se...
Hybrid structures constructed from biomolecules and nanomaterials have been used in catalysis and bioanalytical applications. In the design of many chemically selectiv...
Biosensors research is a fast growing field in which tens of thousands of papers have been published over the years, and the industry is now worth billions of dollars....
Few other neurotransmitters are of as intense interest to neuropsychiatry and neurology as dopamine, yet existing techniques to monitor dopamine release leave an impor...
