title: [Nucleic acids as a basis for creating biosensors].
abstract: Here we present a brief conception of biosensors. Structural peculiarities and properties of single- and double-stranded nucleic acids that are to be taken into account when creating biosensors on the basis of these biomolecules are considered. On the example of two biologically active compounds a possibility is shown for constructing biosensors on the basis of liquid-crystalline dispersions of low molecular mass DNA and on the basis of liquid-crystalline DNA dispersions immobilized due to their inclusion into the synthetic polymeric matrix.
