Kinked nanopores slow DNA passage for easier sequencing
Sandia self-assembly and atomic-layer deposition improve process fivefold
04-Aug-2010 -
In an innovation critical to improved DNA sequencing, a markedly slower transmission of DNA through nanopores has been achieved by a team led by Sandia National Laboratories researchers.
Solid-state nanopores sculpted from silicon dioxide are generally straight, tiny tunnels more than a thousand ...
