Decentralizing Cell-Free RNA Sensing With the Use of Low-Cost Cell Extracts

Cell-free gene expression systems have emerged as a promising platform for field-deployed biosensing and diagnostics. When combined with programmable toehold switch-based RNA sensors, these systems can be used to detect arbitrary RNAs and freeze-dried for room temperature transport to the point-of-n...
