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). …”
