A -- Detection of DNA on Electronic Platforms

Sandia National Laboratories is seeking industry partners to collaborate on evaluating a novel electrical detection technique for DNA using nanowire platforms. This detection method relies on the substrate, requiring active involvement from the partnering company in providing the nanowire platforms and conducting electrical characterization to test the DNA sensing. The technique promises enhanced sensitivity compared to traditional hybridization-adsorption assays and eliminates the need for tagging the target DNA strand, potentially offering a more efficient and sensitive detection method. Interested companies must respond by mail or fax to Sandia National Laboratories with the date and title of the notice, indicating their interest in participating. For further inquiries, contact details are provided for direct communication. This effort presents an opportunity for companies specializing in nanotechnology and biosensing to contribute to innovative DNA detection technology development.
