Spherical Nucleic Acid Stabilized Cage Type Three‐Dimensional Electrochemiluminescence Probe for Sensitive and Amplification‐Free Diagnosis of Infectious Diseases

Exploration, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
This work developed a spherical nucleic acid stabilized cage‐type 3D electrochemiluminescence reporter probe for amplification‐free and ultrasensitive detection of pathogenic. Furthermore, a hand‐held detection device was designed, and we established a straightforward workflow enabling sample to answer within 15 min.
