Natural phage nanoparticle-mediated real-time immuno-PCR for ultrasensitive detection of protein marker.

Current immuno-PCR methods either use bare or nanostructured DNA as a reporter or combine phage display for antigen binding and reporting, however, they are often complex to carry out and lack universality. We present a novel and universal design of immuno-PCR termed natural phage nanoparticle-mediated real-time immuno-PCR.
