Jan 31st 2011, 21:33

A review entitled Ultrasensitive fluorescence-based methods for nucleic acid detection: towards amplification-free genetic analysis was published online in ChemComm today. The review, written by former group member Rohan Ranasinghe and Tom Brown, summarizes new methods for the detection of nucleic acids, from a chemical perspective.

The paper follows on from an earlier review by Rohan and Tom on a similar topic, Fluorescence based strategies for genetic analysis. This review, published in ChemComm, in 2005, has been cited almost 100 times.
