Biomimetic Bio-Nano Engineering Laboratory
Research
Bio-Nano technology
Research topic
Nanotechnology is the technology that manipulates materials in range from the nanometer (nm, 10-9) to the micrometer (μm, 10-6) scale. Bio-nanotechnology is the convergence of biology and nanotechnology to solve the biological problems.
Project
Nanoparticle-mediated DNA Biosensor
Research Objectives
- Nanoparticle surface localized amplification (nSLAM) of genetic material for improved amplification efficiency and amplicon collection.
- Pairing of nSLAM with electrochemical detection (ECD) for rapid and ultrasensitive identification of coronavirus genetic material.
- Multiplex detection of SARS-CoV-2 Variants using isothermal amplification of genetic material and mutational primer design.
