Momentum Builds for Amplification-Free Molecular Diagnostics, but Significant Hurdles Remain
Premium
New systems to directly detect nucleic acids from patient samples are on the horizon, but still fall short of gold standard amplification-based techniques and likely face a difficult regulatory path.
The graphene sheet method enables low-noise all-electronic DNA detection through application of an alternating electric current, with potential diagnostic applications.
The creation of DNA nanoballs allows for the use of more simplified detection techniques, which potentially reduces the cost of testing.
