Highly Sensitive Miniaturized Reader for Probe-based Isothermal Detection for Point-of-Care and Field Applications

Ann Vinckier and colleagues at QIAGEN in the U.S. propose to further improve their commercially available small fluorescence tube scanner for its use at the point-of-care in developing countries, and also investigate probe-based isothermal amplification technologies for the development of fast, sensitive, specific and robust detection of nucleic acids in point-of-care diagnostic tools.
