Label-free Target Nucleic Acid Detection using a Quantum Dot-FRET based Displacement Assay

The exploration of a quantum dot fluorescence resonance energy transfer (QD-FRET) based bioassay for label-free target nucleic acid detection is reported herein. This work explores the potential for developing a displacement assay for detection of nucleic acid sequences of various lengths, including...
