Rapid Detection of Superbugs Using DNA Nanosensor

Superbugs, or bacteria that are resistant to almost all antibiotics, pose a threat to our lives and society. If these infection-causing pathogens can be reliably detected it may help in management and treatment. Ace Infectious is committed to the goal of rapid detection of superbugs. We offer development services for DNA nanosensors that can reliably detect target superbugs and unknown pathogens.

DNA nanosensors bacterial detection

DNA-based nanosensors generally use DNA as a recognition probe. For known superbugs, specific DNA sequences can be developed as recognition elements to specifically detect pathogens in the sample. AuNP-based DNA nanosensors are most commonly used for microbial detection. There have been advances in DNA/RNA biosensors. We can create DNA/RNA signatures to precisely diagnose and identify specific bacteria.
