Fluorescence protection assay: a novel homogeneous assay platform toward development of aptamer sensors for protein detection

Development of novel aptamer sensor strategies for rapid and selective assays of protein biomarkers plays crucial roles in proteomics and clinical diagnostics. Herein, we have developed a novel aptamer sensor strategy for homogeneous detection of protein targets based on fluorescence protection assay. This strategy is based on our reasoning that interaction of aptamer with its protein target ma...

Homogeneous enzymatic colorimetric assay for total cysteine.

Patients with vascular disease have significantly higher concentrations of plasma total cysteine (tCYS) than do healthy individuals (1–7). The present method is a new, rapid, and sensitive enzymatic colorimetric assay for tCYS in plasma samples and is homogeneous in that it avoids separation methods. The tCYS assay uses only the recombinant enzymes methionine , -lyase (rMETase) and Sadenosylhom...

Homogeneous nonisotopic assay for phenytoin evaluated.

We evaluated a new homogeneous immunoprecipitation assay for phenytoin in human serum. No sample dilution or pretreatment is required. The new method is based on spectrophotometry of the inhibition by free phenytoin of the precipitating reaction between anti-phenytoin antibody and a phenytoin-human serum albumin conjugate. A serum test sample is simultaneously mixed with the phenytoin-albumin c...

A Droplet Microarray for Homogeneous Enzymatic Assay

This work describes a droplet microarray for monitoring of enzymatic activity on a glass surface. These array are composed of features defined and separated by differential surface tension (surface tension array). A photolithographic method was used to create a series of circular hydrophilic spots delimited by a perfluorosilanated surface. The perfluorinated region had water contact angle on th...
