Brain tumor diagnosis sped up from weeks to hours using nanopore sequencing — a game-changer for surgery decisions.

Herein, we use ion-current-rectifying nanopore sensors as a simplified case study to show how geometric and operating parameters can enable sensitivity optimization. Finite element analysis is used to ...

To do this, UCR scientists created a novel circuit model that compensates for minor variations in the sensor's behavior. At the heart of their circuit is a nanopore, a tiny aperture through which ...

They’ve created a new circuit model that tracks small sensor behavior changes. Central to the circuit is a nanopore—a tiny opening through which molecules pass one by one. When proteins or DNA ...

To do this, the UCR scientists developed a new circuit model that accounts for small changes to the sensor’s behavior. At the core of their circuit is a nanopore—a tiny opening through which ...

UC Riverside scientists have developed a nanopore-based tool that could help diagnose illnesses much faster and with greater precision than current tests allow, by capturing signals from individual ...

The pore protein, or nanopore, would in effect be a sensor, issuing a different signal for each type of nucleotide in a DNA sequence. After discussing with colleagues years later, experiments on ...

OXFORD, England--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oxford Nanopore Technologies, the company delivering a new generation of nanopore-based molecular sensing technology, today announced a new collaboration with UK ...

Artificial nanopore proteins that resemble the natural ion channels found in cell membranes have been synthesised by researchers in the US and Europe. The team has shown how these nanopores can be ...

To make the process more straightforward and potentially accessible, the researchers’ method put a twist on nanopore sequencing, a next-generation method for parsing genetic material.

Nanopore sensors have been in the works for several decades and have great potential to detect a wide range of molecules rapidly. ‘[They] enable the detection and quantification of molecules by ...
