Preparation of single- and double-oligonucleotide antibody conjugates and their application for protein analytics
Abstract Oligonucleotide-conjugated antibodies have gained importance for their use in protein diagnostics. The possibility to transfer the readout signal from the protein to the DNA level with an oligonucleotide-conjugated antibody increased the sensitivity of protein assays by orders of magnitude...

Abstract Oligonucleotide-conjugated antibodies have gained importance for their use in protein diagnostics.
