DNA-Coated Gold Nanoparticles for the Detection of mRNA in Live Hydra Vulgaris Animals
11 Dec 2018
Abstract excerpt
Advances in nanoparticle design have led to the development of nanoparticulate systems that can sense intracellular molecules, alter cellular processes, and release drugs to specific targets in vitro. In this work, we demonstrate that oligonucleotide-coated gold nanoparticles are suitable for the detection of mRNA in live Hydra vulgaris, a model organism, without affecting the animal's integrity. We specifically...
