Construction of a novel DNA-based comparator and its application in intelligent analysis.

In this work, a novel and general comparator was constructed based on cascaded strand displacement reactions and DNA hybridization and its potential in intelligently weighing the quantitative predominance of two targets was explored in a complex biological matrix, which not only enriches the information processing mode of DNA computation but also provides an instructive way to deal with quantitative analyzing tasks in further DNA-based logic sensors.
