Nucleic acid detection using single-walled carbon nanohorns as a fluorescent sensing platform

Abstract

In this communication, we demonstrate for the first time the proof of concept that single-walled carbon nanohorns can be used as an effective fluorescent sensing platform for nucleic acid detection with a high selectivity down to single-base mismatch.
