Real-time monitoring of PCR amplification of proto-oncogene c-MYC using a Ta2O5 electrolyte-insulator-semiconductor sensor

► Real-time monitoring of PCR via a Ta2O5 electrolyte-insulator-semiconductor (EIS) sensor. ► Response of EIS sensor compares to standard SYBR-green. ► Possibility to detect DNA concentration variations of 30 mV/μM. ► Sensor for real-time PCR amplification of c-MYC gene comparable to standard real-time PCR.
