Nanopores are emerging as powerful tools for the detection and identification of
macromolecules in aqueous solution. In this review, we discuss the recent development of …

Single molecule force spectroscopy presents a deceptively simple approach to probing
interaction between molecules and molecular assemblies on the nanoscale by measuring …

An important issue in nanopore sensing is to construct stable and versatile sensors that can
discriminate analytes with minute differences. Here we report a means of creating …

A dynamical mean field theory is used to predict the end-monomer mean square
displacement of single-stranded DNA and finally estimate two important parameters—the …

Prostate cancer is one of the most frequently diagnosed male malignancies and can be
detected by prostate-specific antigen (PSA) as a biomarker. To detect PSA, several studies …

Thanks to direct observation and manipulation of DNA in micro/nanofluidic devices, we are
now able to elucidate the relationship between the polymer microstructure and its …

Abstract Based on a recent scaling law of the water mobility under nanoconfined conditions,
we envision novel strategies for precise modulation of water diffusion within membranes …

Recent progress in the combination of nucleic acids and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) has
been briefly reviewed here. Since discovering the hybridization phenomenon of DNA …

The interactions between biomolecules and material interfaces at the molecular level are
complicated but very important for the development of materials science, nanotechnology …

We used single molecule force spectroscopy to measure the force required to remove single-
stranded DNA (ssDNA) homopolymers from single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) …
