PCR-free and chemistry-based technology for miR-21 rapid detection directly from tumour cells

PUBLICATIONS

Citation: Talanta, 2019, 51-56 Abstract miRNAs are well known for being implicated in a myriad of biological situations, including those related to serious diseases. Amongst miRNAs, miRNA-21 has the spotlight as it is reported to be up-regulated in multiple severe pathological conditions, being its quantification a key point in medicine. To date, most of the techniques for miRNA quantification…

New Platform for the Direct Profiling of microRNAs in Biofluids

PUBLICATIONS

Citation: Anal. Chem., 2019, 91 (9), 5874–5880 Abstract Circulating microRNAs have been identified as potential biomarkers for early detection, prognosis, and prediction of several diseases. Their use in clinical diagnostics has been limited by the lack of suitable detection techniques. Most of the current technologies suffer from requiring complex protocols, not yet able to deliver robust and cost-effective…
