Abstract excerpt
AmpliDet RNA is a real-time diagnostic method, the specificity of which is defined mainly by the molecular beacon (MB). MBs can be characterized according to the stability of their stem-and-loop structures and that of the probe-target duplex via the free energies accompanying their formation. By the application of thermodynamic models, we propose a prediction method for these deltaG(0) parameters, which was...
