The early diagnosis of malignancy is the most critical factor for patient survival and the treatment of cancer. In particular, leukemic cells are highly heterogeneous, and there is a need to develop new rapid and accurate detection systems for early diagnosis and monitoring of minimal residual disea

We introduce the modification of bacteriophage particles with aptamers for use as bioanalytical reporters, and demonstrate the use of these particles in ultrasensitive lateral flow assays. M13 phage displaying an in vivo biotinylatable peptide (AviTag) genetically fused to the phage tail protein pII

Glucose oxidase-based biofuel cells are a promising source of alternative energy for small device applications, but still face the challenge of achieving robust electrical contact between the redox enzymes and the current collector. This paper reports on the design of an electrode consisting of gluc
The filamentous coliphage M13 can be transformed into a spherical particle (termed spheroid) by exposure to an interface of water and slightly polar but hydrophobic solvent such as chloroform-water at 24 degrees C. We report here ...
