Abstract excerpt
Identification of specific nucleic acid sequences mediated by gold nanoparticles derivatized thiol-modified oligonucleotides (Au-nanoprobes) has been proven to be a useful tool in molecular diagnostics. Here, we demonstrate that, on optimization, detection may be simplified via the use of a single Au-nanoprobe to detect a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in homo- or heterozygote condition. We validated this...
