Near-Infrared Dye-Aptamer Assay for Small Molecule Detection in Complex Specimens

Jin, X., Liu, Y., Alkhamis, O., Canoura, J., Bacon, A., Xu, R., … Xiao, Y. (2022, July 7). ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY, Vol. 7.

By: X. Jin*, Y. Liu n, O. Alkhamis n, J. Canoura n, A. Bacon n, R. Xu*, F. Fu*, Y. Xiao n

MeSH headings : Aptamers, Nucleotide / chemistry; Biological Assay; Biosensing Techniques / methods
TL;DR: The utility of dye-aptamer NIR biosensors for high-throughput detection of analytes in clinical specimens is shown and the generality of this assay is demonstrated by detecting three different small-molecule analytes with their respective DNA aptamers at clinically relevant concentrations in serum and urine.
