Description of the model and results you can see in our wiki page + +We created a detailed kinetic model to ensure system performance, optimal conditions, reaction time, and potential sensitivity. The goals of the model are the following: + +To confirm our expectations of system functioning, such as the potential to detect nucleic acids in a reasonable time +To determine optimal conditions (sgRNA initial concentration, CasX initial concentration, etc.), +To determine detector sensitivity - the minimum concentration of nucleic acid in a sample that can be detected using our test system, +To determine the time required to carry out one test.
