Abstract
Superparamagnetic nanoparticles conjugated to oligonucleotides exert sensitive and reversible effects on the spin-spin relaxation rates of adjacent water protons when the conjugates hybridize to target oligonucleotides (see temperature cycle in the picture). The fluid-phase magnetic sensors provide the basis for detecting specific nucleic acid sequences in turbid media and potentially in tissues in vivo.
