The study was published in Materials Science by the American Chemical Society in an article titled “Facilitation of Polymerase Chain Reaction with Poly(ethylene glycol)-Engrafted Graphene Oxide Analogous to a Single-Stranded-DNA Binding Protein.” Master’s student Hyo Ryoung Kim and PhD student Ahreum Baek, who are scholarship recipients of the BK21 Plus Program, participated in the research which was supported by a grant by the National Research Foundation of Korea. </span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">“The research has made a significant contribution to increasing the efficiency of polymerase chain reaction (PCR), a DNA amplification method that has been used widely for the past three decades,” said Professor Kim. “We applied for a patent to commercialize the technology and our next goal is to maximize the added value of the research through a PCR kit and transferring the technology.”</span></p> <p> </p>
