Development of an on-disc isothermal in vitro amplification and detection of bacterial RNA
(2017-02-01)
We present a centrifugal microfluidic “Lab-on-a-Disc” (LoaD) system capable of implementing nucleic acid in vitro amplification using non-contact heating and fluorescence detection. The system functionality is verified by ...
