Silsesquioxane-Polythiophene Hybrid Copolymer as an Efficient Modifier for Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes by Shuxi Gao, Xiaoyong Hu, Lei Zhang, Yuliang Mai, Hao Pang, Yongqiang Dai, Bing Liao

“…According to the exploration and characterization results, it was much more efficient at modifying SWNTs than its linear analogs in aqueous solution. The hydrophobic silsesquioxane core and PEDOT chains could locally anchor to the surface of the nanotubes, while the soluble flexible copolymer chains extended into the solution and rigid conjugated chains provided some π-π stacking effect to enhance adhesive force with the conjugated structure of the carbon nanotube, imparting steric stabilization to nanotube dispersion. …”

One-Pot Detection of miRNA by Dual Rolling Circle Amplification at Ambient Temperature with High Specificity and Sensitivity by Wenhua Sun, Kunling Hu, Ziting Song, Ran An, Xingguo Liang

“…Here, we present an RCA method for miRNA detection at 37 °C using two circular ssDNAs, each of which is formed by ligating the intramolecularly formed nick (without any splint) in a secondary structure. The specific target recognition is realized by utilizing low concentrations (0.1 nM) of circular ssDNA1 (C1). …”
