Error reduction in biosensors using secondary labeling

Medical Physics 2019-07-11 v1 Biological Physics

Abstract

In this article, we derive the limit of detection for a two-step molecular recognition process and show that in-spite of all the recognition reactions being in equilibrium the overall error rates can be reduced exactly as much as possible in non-equilibrium methods such as kinetic proofreading.
