Simultaneously sensitive detection of multiple miRNAs based on a strand displacement amplification

Abstract

We reported an efficient strategy based on a strand displacement amplification for serum miRNA detection. In such a system, a multiplexed, sensitive and quick detection of miRNAs could be achieved through a combination of fluorescence labeled probes, a common primer and a polymerase. This could be potentially used in the clinical field to achieve early disease diagnosis and prognosis.
