Abstract excerpt
CRISPR-Cas12a-driven nucleic acid diagnostics offer considerable potential for highly specific and rapid detection. However, their practical applications are limited by the necessity for pre-amplification of target DNA to enhance sensitivity. To overcome this limitation, we developed Auto-catalyst, a novel one-pot, amplification-free DNA detection platform employing a two-stage autocatalytic Cas12a cascade. This...
