HEATING MECHANISM FOR DNA AMPLIFICATION, EXTRACTION OR STERILIZATION USING PHOTO-THERMAL NANOPARTICLES
摘要
A heating mechanism for use in DNA applications such as DNA amplification, extraction and sterilization is provided. Nanoparticles having photo-thermal properties are put in contact with a reaction mixture and irradiated with an activation light beam to activate these photo-thermal properties, thereby releasing heat. Nanoparticles of several types may be used. Use of the same nanoparticles or of different one to monitor the reaction using a different light beam is also presented.
