  • Multiplexed and recyclable single-molecule sensors for quantitative analysis of nucleic-acid biomarkers
    Patent number: 11441182
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a simple, sensitive, and fully-recyclable fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based multiplex detection platform that overcomes current requirements of complex labeling schemes and complicated data analysis algorithms for employing single-molecule FRET (smFRET) microscopy in multiplexing. While conventional smFRET detection techniques allow for the analysis of one target at a time, the disclosed approach utilizes the gaps between high- and low-FRET signals to provide simultaneous detection and quantification of multiple nucleic acid targets.
    Type: Grant
