Heat-transfer resistance based analysis bioparticles Universiteit Hasselt
A method an system is disclosed for characterizing DNA and/or RNA duplexes. The biosensing device comprises a heating element using a power and being suitable for providing thermal denaturation of target DNA and/or RNA bioparticles, a sample holder adapted for receiving a biocompatible substrate having a functionalized surface which is coated with probe DNA and/or RNA whereto target DNA and/or RNA duplexes can be attached, the sample holder further being adapted for exposing the biocompatible substrate at one side to the heating element, a first temperature sensing element for sensing a ...
