Luminescent Biosensor for Detection of Specific Nucleotide Sequences, Small Molecules, and Proteins at Point-of-Care
A serotonin release assay that requires no special training or expensive equipment, and produces results within hours. Background:
Platelet serotonin release assay (SRA) is a widely-used clinical assay for diagnosing heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), a life-threatening complication of heparin treatment. The current SRA procedure entails sending...

DsDNA-templated Substrates as Fluorescent Probes for CRISPR-Cas12a-based Diagnostics
New design for CRISPR-based fluorescent probes improves disease diagnostics and sensing. Background: Scientists use the naturally occurring CRISPR-Cas12a gene editing system as a valuable tool for disease diagnostics. When Cas12a finds its target -- a sequence of double-stranded DNA -- it cuts it. In the process, it also cuts other nearby DNAs. Scientists...
