M-DNA is a novel form of DNA generated by applying the company’s proprietary method of introducing metal ions along the DNA helix. This hybrid, novel form of DNA provides for the highly efficient conduction/exchange of electrons, enabling improved sensitivity and selectivity for application in molecular diagnostics and the development of biosensors. The conductivity properties of DNA also enable the generation and storage of hydrogen.
