Abstract
Molecular sensing system including: a sensing device () comprising at least one support layer (), and an active layer () mounted on said support layer and having at least one nano-pore () configured for translocation of a molecular analyte () therethrough; an electrically conducting liquid () in contact with the active layer in a region around said nano-pore; and a signal processing circuit () comprising an ionic current circuit () configured to generate and measure an ionic current (Ii) in the electrically conducting liquid influenced by the translocation of the molecular analyte through the nano-pore. The molecular sensing device of the invention allows for single-nucleotide discrimination and detection of the specific sequence within ssDNA.
