Graphical Abstract

Fokus auf die Kleinen: Ein zweistufiger Assay zum Nachweis von microRNA nutzt elektrokinetische Fokussierung zur Beschleunigung der Hybridisierung und ein funktionalisiertes Hydrogel zur Affinitätsaufreinigung. Die Methode kann einzelne microRNA-Nucleotide in 15 Minuten detektieren und benötigt nur 5 ng RNA.
