We present a low-cost, sensitive and specific DNA field-effect transistor sensor for the rapid detection of a common mutation to the tumour protein 53 gene (TP53). The sensor consists of a commercially available, low-cost, field-effect transistor attached in series to
Complex biological tissues are highly viscoelastic and dynamic. Efforts to repair or replace cartilage, tendon, muscle, and vasculature using materials that facilitate repair and regeneration have been ongoing for decades. However, materials that possess the mechanical, chemical, and resorption characteristics

Most protein kinases are regulated through activation loop phosphorylation, but the contributions of individual sites are largely unresolved due to insufficient control over sample phosphorylation. Aurora-A is a mitotic Ser/Thr protein kinase that has two regulatory phosphorylation sites on its
The reducing end of protected carbohydrates can be equipped with a series of aglycones via the photochemical installation of a 3-mercaptoethanol linker. This linker is stable during chemical and enzymatic glycosylation reactions but can be activated readily and efficiently to
A simple, label-free and sensitive electrochemical assay is described for the detection of protein kinase A (PKA) activity and inhibition in cancer cell by measuring the change in electrochemical impedance upon phosphorylation. The assay utilized gold nanoparticle (AuNP) and reduced
Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
