An ultrasensitive and selective fluorescence nanosensor based on porphyrinic metal-organic framework nanoparticles for Cu2+ detection Changming Cheng, Ruolin Zhang, Jiuhai Wang, Yu Zhang, Chunyi Wen, Youhua Tan and Mo Yang Abstract Detecting trace amount of copper ions (Cu2+) is of high importance since copper is an essential element in the environment and human body.

Nucleic acid testing (NAT) based methods are more sensitive and specific, and are preferred over enzyme immunoassays. Different NAT based protocols have been designed to detect multiple pathogens in order to reduce the inherent high cost for detection. However, these assays do not reliably detect a large number of pathogens at once. In this report, a DNA hybridization based chemiluminescence detection method has been proposed for reliable detection of multiple pathogens.
