We now have a flow cytometry version of the origamiFISH method recently reported in Nat Nano. As before, it offers greater sensitivity compared to dye labels, now with high throughout and works with nonadherent cells. Give it a try! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Happy to announce our work has been published in Small! origamiFISH-Flow is high-throughput and has greater sensitivity over traditional dye-labeling for detection of DNA origami nanoparticles in cells and tissues. Check it out: doi.org/10.1002/smll.2…😀

Congrats to my PhD student shana alexander on publishing her first paper! Shana combined sensitive HCR FISH with flow cytometry to analyze distribution of synthetic DNA nanostructures in single cell suspensions. Label-free and way more sensitive than dye labeling!

shana alexander did an incredible job leading this project. This method combines HCR FISH with flow cytometry to offer a highly sensitive assay for detecting DNA nanostructures in cells, at bulk scale. doi.org/10.1002/smll.2… Congratulations, it was awesome working with you!
