Recently our group developed a novel sensor to detect oligonucleotides of interest. The principle of this biosensor is based on the fluorescence quenching exerted by Graphene Oxide (GO) against the emission of UCNPs when excited at near-IR.<br/><br/>In this poster, we show how this sensor is utilized to detect mRNA biomarkers related to diseases and plants. Our ultimate goal is to engineer a portable device for the fast, ease and reliable detection of multiple biomarkers at the field in real-time.<br/>
