Sensitive point-of-care monitoring of HIV related DNA sequences with a personal glucometer.

چکیده
The hybridizations between the HIV target DNA and the capture probes as well as the signal probes conjugated to the multi-invertase/nanoparticle composites lead to the conversion of sucrose to glucose, which is monitored by the personal glucometer and provides quantitative digital readings for point-of-care diagnosis of HIV DNA fragments.

Evaluation of Lamivudine Resistance Mutations in HBV/HIV Co-infected Patients
Background and Objective: The drug resistance mutations are key elements in the failure of long-term treatment of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections. The mutation in the YMDD motif in the P gene of HBV is the most critical factor in antiviral drug (especially lamivudine) resistance. This study aimed to assess the YMDD motif and other polymerase gene mutati...

متن کاملDetection of single Dactylogyrus spp. in DNA extracted from infected gill tissue of fishes using Polymerase Chain Reaction
Dactylogyrus spp. are monogenean worms found mostly as ectoparasites on the gills of several fish species, including carp and goldfish. These parasites are commonly detected by microscopic analysis of the gill lamellae, but this is time-consuming and technically difficult. In contrast to this conventional method, molecular techniques provide specific, sensitive and safe detection of parasites. ...
متن کاملCoupling a DNA-Based Machine with Glucometer Readouts for Amplified Detection of Telomerase Activity in Cancer Cells
The strong correlation between cancer and telomerase activity has inspired the development of new strategies to evaluate telomerase activity. Here, a personal glucose meter (PGM) system that uses DNA-based machine amplification to detect telomerase in cancer cells is reported. In this assay, telomerase elongation products are amplified in the form of another type of product by a DNA-based machi...
