Scientists design simple dipstick test for cocaine, other drugs
...molecular target, such as cocaine, a corresponding aptamer can be selected from a large DNA library. By using lateral flow devices as platforms to separate aptamer-linked nanoparticle aggregates, Lu, postdoctoral researcher Juewen Liu and graduate student Debapriya Mazumdar created highly sensitive and sel...Researchers use 'trickery' to create immune response against melanoma
