Branched Nanochannel devices for detection and sorting of Nucleic Acids

The Problem: Although methods to edit DNA have increased in recent years, there is no method to effectively screen edited DNA. Traditionally, edited DNA is placed into bacteria to see the effects of the DNA edit. Thus, to determine if the editing worked the bacteria must be grown and then analyzed to determine if the effect was seen. If not,...
