Ultrasensitive nucleic acid detection based on phosphorothioated hairpin-assisted isothermal amplification

Abstract Herein, we describe a phosphorothioated hairpin-assisted isothermal amplification (PHAmp) method for detection of a target nucleic acid. The hairpin probe (HP) is designed to contain a 5′ phosphorothioate (PS)-modified overhang, a target recognition site, and a 3′ self-priming (SP) region....
