Abstract:
The present disclosure relates generally to methods of controlling the movement of molecules, such as DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid), RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) and proteins as well as other biological molecules passing through nanopores. In particular, the disclosure describes how structures made of soft magnetic material can be used to selectively hold, pull and release DNA tagged with magnetic beads.
