title: Electrical detection of hepatitis C virus RNA on single wall carbon nanotube-field effect transistors.
abstract: We report the unambiguous detection of a sequence of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) at concentrations down to the fractional pM range using Single Wall Carbon Nanotube (SWNT) Field Effect Transistor (FET) devices functionalized with Peptide Nucleic Acid (PNA).
