15N−15N J-Coupling Across HgII: Direct Observation of HgII-Mediated T−T Base Pairs in a DNA Duplex

TL;DR: N−N J-coupling across a metal center (2JNN) was clearly detected in a biological macromolecule (DNA duplex) for the first time and the base pairing mode of mercury-mediated T−T pairs (T−HgII−T) was definitely determined.

Isothermal in vitro amplification of DNA by a restriction enzyme/DNA polymerase system (nucleic acid amplification/strand displacement/Mycobacterium tuberculosis)

TL;DR: An isothermal in vitro DNA amplification method was developed based upon the following sequence of reaction events: restriction enzyme cleavage and subsequent heat denaturation of a DNA sample generates two single-stranded target DNA fragments (T1 and T2), present in excess are two DNA amplification primers (P1 and P2).

Gold nanoparticle probes for the detection of mercury, lead and copper ions.

TL;DR: The roles of several factors affecting the selectivity and sensitivity of the nanosensors toward the analytes are discussed: the size of the Au nanomaterial, the length and sequence of the DNA or the nature of the thiol, the surface density of the recognition ligand, the ionic strength and pH of the buffer solution.
