Abstract EN
Bromacil is a widely used herbicide that is known to contaminate environmental systems.
Due to the hazards it presents and inefficient detection methods, it is necessary to create a rapid and efficient sensing device.
Towards this end, we have utilized a stringent in vitro selection method to identify single-stranded DNA molecular recognition elements (MRE) specific for bromacil.
We have identified one MRE with high affinity (Kd=9.6 nM) and specificity for bromacil compared to negative targets of selection and other pesticides.
The selected ssDNA MRE will be useful as the sensing element in a field-deployable bromacil detection device.
