ABSTRACT:
The detection of specific DNA sequences using electrochemical readout would permit the rapid and inexpensive detection and identification of bacterial pathogens and the analysis of human genes. A new assay developed for this purpose is described that harnesses an electrocatalytic process to monitor DNA hybridization.
