DNA nanotechnology is a field of nanotechnology that uses DNA molecules as building blocks to create structures and devices on the nanoscale, including the emerging field of DNA computing. DNA ...

Nanotechnology is broadly defined as the science of creating and developing well-structured materials and their components. DNA-based nanotechnology employs branched motifs to these ends.

(Nanowerk News) In a recently published study in Advanced Materials Interfaces ("Hybrid DNA Origami – Graphene Platform for ...

Written by the founder of the field, this is the first text of its kind, providing a definitive introduction to structural DNA nanotechnology. Readers will learn everything there is to know about the ...

such as knots and those with multiple strands, can also be cloned using this approach. Nevertheless, the work represents another important development in the field of DNA nanotechnology.

Together with researchers from Heidelberg, Dresden, Tübingen and Harvard, Professor Jan Kierfeld and Lukas Weise from the Department of Physics at TU Dortmund University have succeeded for the first ...

will discuss practical applications of enzymatic DNA synthesis technology in DNA nanotechnology. He will describe how his work in the lab of Shawn Douglas, PhD, at University of California ...

Researchers have developed a strategy that enables biosensors to be easily adapted for a wide range of applications.

but at present the research on self-organization of soft-matter systems is being developed mainly in the field of ...

Biosensors play a key role in medical research and diagnostics. At present, however, they generally have to be specially developed for each application. A team led by LMU chemist Philip Tinnefeld has ...
