Abstract excerpt
We present a method that takes advantage of the fluorophore loading dependence of fluorescence nanoparticle tracking (fNTA) to determine the content of specific miRNA targets in extracellular vesicles (EVs) and their stoichiometry across the entire EV population. The method is based on an assay for detecting EV miRNA by hybridization to fluorescently labeled, miRNA-specific molecular beacons encapsulated in...
