Nile blue as reporter dye in salt aggregation based-colorimetric aptasensors for peptide, small molecule and metal ion detection

Herein, we report a novel approach for the design of a colorimetric aptasensor, relying on a Dye Salt Aggregation-based Colorimetric Oligonucleotide assay (DYSACO assay). This method is based on the use of an intercalating agent, Nile Blue (NB), whose aggregation capacities (and thus modification of...
