Abstract excerpt
Terahertz absorption spectroscopy based on attenuated total reflection (ATR) from a microfluidic sample cell was designed and implemented to detect gene mutations leading to Huntington's disease (HD). The self-developed compact ATR microfluidic system was employed to detect two groups of base-repeated DNA molecules combined with a terahertz time-domain spectrometer in a marker-free manner. The first group...
