Molecularly imprinted nanoparticles for inhibiting ribonuclease in reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction [PDF]
We showed that molecularly imprinted nanoparticles (nanoMIPs) could efficiently inhibit the activities of the RNase in RT-PCR reactions, demonstrating that the tailor-made nanomaterials are very promising for use in routine biological assays.
