Current Research Activities

Our PNA studies include PNA-ferrocene hybrids that can be applied as redox biosensors. The PNA chain, which directs the conjugate to the DNA/RNA target, is covalently attached to the redox active moiety, which signals the presence of the targeted DNA/RNA strand by a change in its electrochemical behaviour.
