ANALYSIS METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18677551 titled 'ANALYSIS METHOD
The analysis method described in the patent application detects a target substance using a binding substance that includes a single-stranded nucleic acid preparation and a complementary nucleic acid.
- The single-stranded nucleic acid preparation has the ability to bind to the target substance.
- The complementary nucleic acid forms a base pair with a 3′ terminal region of the single-stranded nucleic acid preparation when it is not bound to the target substance.
- The complementary nucleic acid dissociates from the 3′ terminal region when the single-stranded nucleic acid preparation is bound to the target substance.
Potential Applications: - Medical diagnostics - Environmental monitoring - Food safety testing
Problems Solved: - Rapid and accurate detection of target substances - Specific binding to target substances
Benefits: - Increased sensitivity and specificity in detection - Quick and efficient analysis process
Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Target Substance Detection Method for Various Industries This technology can be used in medical laboratories, environmental agencies, and food production facilities for efficient and reliable detection of target substances.
Prior Art: Researchers can explore prior art related to nucleic acid-based detection methods and binding substances in the field of analytical chemistry.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in nucleic acid detection methods and improvements in binding substances for target substance detection.
Questions about the Technology: 1. How does this method compare to traditional target substance detection techniques?
- This method offers increased sensitivity and specificity compared to traditional techniques.

Original Abstract Submitted
An analysis method detects a target substance using a binding substance. The binding substance includes: a single-stranded nucleic acid preparation having activity to bind to the target substance; and a complementary nucleic acid that forms a base pair with a 3′ terminal region of the single-stranded nucleic acid preparation when the single-stranded nucleic acid preparation is not bound to the target substance, and that dissociates from the 3′ terminal region when the single-stranded nucleic acid preparation is bound to the target substance.
