Aptamer-based fluorescence polarization assay for separation-free exosome quantification

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

particles per μL with a detect limitation of 500 particles per μL for the cell line deprived exosomes. The total assay time is about 30 min with just one mix-and-read step to achieve high sensitivity. We have also demonstrated quantification of exosomes from lung cancer patients and healthy donors in clinical samples. This work describes a new and simple liquid biopsy assay to directly detect exosomes in the biological matrix, which facilitates cancer diagnosis and therapy monitoring.
