Isothermal Discrimination of Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms via Real-Time Kinetic Desorption and Label-Free Detection of DNA Using Silicon Photonic Microring Resonator Arrays

Abstract We report a sensitive, label-free method for detecting single-stranded DNA and discriminating between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using arrays of silicon photonic microring resonators. In only a 10 min assay, DNA is detected at subpicomole levels...

Sensitive on-chip detection of a protein biomarker in human serum and plasma over an extended dynamic range using silicon photonic microring resonators and sub-micron beads

Abstract We demonstrate a three-step assay on a silicon photonic microring resonator-based detection platform that enables the quantitation of the cardiac biomarker C-reactive protein (CRP) over a dynamic range spanning six orders of magnitude. Using antibody-modified...
