Abstract

Methods, compositions, kits and systems for detecting and/or capturing a target entity in a sample are disclosed.

Methods and compositions for detecting and/or capturing a microbe in a test sample, including bodily fluids such as blood and tissues of a subject, food, water, and environmental surfaces are also disclosed.
