Abstract
The present invention discloses a BNP aptamer fluorescence detection device based on a smart phone and a sensing method thereof, including a detection control mechanism, a fluorescence rapid detection mechanism and an aptamer fluorescence sensor. The aptamer fluorescence sensor uses oligonucleotides marked by carboxy fluorescein as an aptamer to capture the BNP specificity. The detection control mechanism receives a fluorescence signal to display test results. The fluorescence rapid detection mechanism uses the OTG function as a plug-in power supply. The present invention fills the gap of portable fluorescence detection for digital BNP.
