Research Abstract |
In this study, a highly sensitive immunoassay was developed by using DNA amplification technique as detection system. Under isothermal condition, LAMP(Loop-mediated isothermal Amplification) and RCA(Rolling Circle Amplification) reaction enable successive DNA amplification. In order to apply DNA amplification to the detection system on immunoassay, DNA-conjugated antigen was prepared for competitive immunoassay. As a result, physically and chemically stable DNA provided highly efficient and sensitive signal amplification based on genetic engineering.
