A label-free G-quadruplex-based mercury detection assay employing the exonuclease III-mediated cleavage of T–Hg2+–T mismatched DNA
We report herein the use of an exonuclease III and G-quadruplex probe to construct a G-quadruplex-based luminescence detection platform for Hg2+. Unlike common DNA-based Hg2+ detection methods, when using the dsDNA probe to monitor the hairpin formation, the intercalation of the dsDNA probe may be i...
