Label-free real-time detection of biotinylated bovine serum albumin using a low-cost optical cavity-based biosensor.

We have developed a low-cost optical cavity-based biosensor with a differential detection method for point-of-care medical diagnostics. To experimentally demonstrate its label-free real-time biosensing capability, we performed the detection of biotinylated bovine serum albumin (BSA). Streptavidin is introduced into the optical cavity structure and immobilized on 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) coated surface. After rinsing out unbound streptavidin…

Auto-qPCR; a python-based web app for automated and reproducible analysis of qPCR data

Quantifying modifications in DNA and RNA ranges is crucial in quite a few molecular biology protocols. Quantitative actual time PCR (qPCR) strategies have developed to grow to be commonplace, nonetheless, information evaluation contains many time-consuming and cumbersome steps, which might result in errors and misinterpretation of knowledge. To handle these bottlenecks, now we have developed…

In vitro evaluation of the effect of mutations in primer binding sites on detection of SARS-CoV-2 by RT-qPCR

Quite a few RT-qPCR assays for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 have been printed and are listed by the WHO as advisable assays. Moreover, quite a few business assays with undisclosed primer and probe sequences are available on the market. Because the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic progresses, the virus accrues mutations, which in some circumstances – as seen…
