Abstract:
1. A method for sensing one or more analytes in a solution comprising: disposing operably one or more protein pores in a divider between a first and a second chamber exposing said one or more protein pores to a solution suspected of comprising one or more analytes at a temperature at or above 55° C.; and detecting a current between the first and a second chambers with a current detector when the one or more protein pores are exposed to a solution suspected of comprising the one or more analytes at a temperature at or above 55° C., wherein each of the one or more protein pores comprise at least one high temperature stabilization molecular adapter that stabilizes the one or more protein pores at a temperature at or above 55° C. and the one or more analytes produces a change in current between the first and a second chambers detectable by the current detector.
