Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is a system and method for electrochemical detection of biological compounds. This invention relates to an electrochemical method for detecting a target polynucleotide. An electrode comprising an electrode surface is provided, which includes at least one probe molecule reversibly immobilized with respect to the electrode surface. A first electrochemical signal indicative of an amount of probe molecule immobilized with respect to the electrode surface is obtained. The electrode surface is then contacted with a liquid comprising the target polynucleotide. Upon this contacting step, at least some of the probe molecule immobilized with respect to the electrode surface dissociates. A second electrochemical signal indicative of an amount of probe molecule immobilized with respect to the electrode surface is obtained. The presence of the target polynucleotide is determined at least partially based on the first and second electrochemical signals.
