摘要:
There is described herein a method for the electrochemical quantification of a protein analyte in sample, comprising: providing one or more electrode(s), each comprising at least one peptide attached to its surface, the peptide being the protein or a fragment thereof; contacting the sample and electrode with an antibody in the presence of a redox reporter, wherein the antibody is capable of binding to each of the protein analyte and the peptide on the electrode; measuring an electrochemical signal generated by the redox reporter when a potential is applied; quantifying the protein analyte by comparing the electrochemical signal generated with a control, wherein the electrochemical signal is indirectly proportional to the amount of protein analyte in the sample.
摘要:
Methods and systems for mRNA analysis and quantification of mRNA expression in cells are provided. An example method includes introducing a first capture probe and a second capture probe into the cells, the first capture probe and the second capture probe each configured to be complementary to a respective section of target mRNA within the cells, wherein binding of the first and second capture probes to the respective sections of the target mRNA results in tagging of the cells and causes the first and second capture probes to form clusters with each other. The first capture probe and the second capture probe are each bound to magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) that, when trapped within the tagged cells, cause the tagged cells to be susceptible to magnetic forces. The method and system further include introducing the cells into a device configured to magnetically capture tagged cells.
