Within this project we will validate RNA biosensor technology for the detection of viral RNA.
The modularity of cell-free systems in their composition of specific sensory components and universal building blocks such as coupling to signal amplifying reactions or different reporters will enable us to provide a platform for the rapid and efficient development of biosensors for the detection of viral RNA.
This project is funded by the European Regional Development Fund as part of the Union's response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The budget is used for necessary laboratory equipment.
