Abstract excerpt
Rapid (<2 min) and quantitative genotyping for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with spinal muscular atrophy was done using a reusable (approximately 80 cycles of application) fibre-optic biosensor over a clinically relevant range (0-4 gene copies). Sensors were functionalized with oligonucleotide probes immobilized at high density (approximately 7 pmol/cm2) to impart enhanced selectivity for SNP...
