Controlled Sensing of User-Defined Aptamer-Based Targets Using Scanning Ionic Conductance Spectroscopy

Aleksandra Radenovic, Lely Feletti, Georg Fantner, Barney Frederick Drake, Marcos Penedo Garcia, Helena Miljkovic, Wayne Yang Wen Wei, Zahra Ayar Dulabi

Solid-state nanopores offer the possibility of detecting disease biomarkers in early diagnostic applications. Standard approaches harness fingerprinting, where protein targets are bound to DNA carriers and detected in free translocation with a solid-state ...

Spatially multiplexed single-molecule translocations through a nanopore at controlled speeds

Aleksandra Radenovic, Georg Fantner, Samuel Mendes Leitão, Barney Frederick Drake, Sanjin Marion, Vytautas Navikas, Simon Finn Mayer, Helena Miljkovic

In current nanopore-based label-free single-molecule sensing technologies, stochastic processes influence the selection of translocating molecule, translocation rate and translocation velocity. As a result, single-molecule translocations are challenging to ...

Growing a 'cosmic beast': observations and simulations of MACS J0717.5+3745

Elena Cristina Dalla Vecchia, Matthieu Schaller, Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Richard Massey, David Richard Harvey, Matthew Aaron Robertson, Barney Frederick Drake, Mathilde Jauzac

We present a gravitational lensing and X-ray analysis of a massive galaxy cluster and its surroundings. The core of MACS J0717.5+3745 (M(R < 1Mpc) similar to 2 x 10(15) M-circle dot, z = 0.54) is already known to contain four merging components. We show th ...
