Point-of-care biosensor systems for cancer diagnostics/prognostics
(Elsevier, 2006-02-13)
With the growing number of fatalities resulting from the 100 or so cancer-related diseases, new enabling tools are required to provide extensive molecular profiles of patients to guide the clinician in making viable diagnosis ...
Effect of an Oscillating Magnetic Field on the Release Properties of Magnetic Collagen Gels
(ACS Publications, 2006-05-13)
The paper describes the effect of an oscillating magnetic field (OMF) on the morphology and release properties of collagen gels containing magnetic nanoparticles and microparticles and fluorescent drug analogues. Collagen ...
Luminescent quantum dots for cellular analysis
(SPIE, 2006-10-19)
The paper describes the fabrication, characterization and applications of novel luminescent quantum dots fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) based enzymatic activity probes. The luminescent probes are based on ...
FRET-based luminescence sensors for carbohydrates and glycoproteins analysis
(SPIE, 2004-12-07)
This paper describes the development of novel particle-based fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) biosensors. It describes the fundamentals of FRET in heterogeneous systems and the application of the new sensors ...
Nanocomposite particles containing semiconductor and magnetic nanocrystals: fabrication and characterization
(SPIE, 2004-12-29)
In this paper several approaches to fabricate semiconductor magnetic nanocomposite are reported. Several thiol- and amino- silane cross linked molecules were used to couple and embed CdSe and Fe3O4 nanoparticles into silica ...
Advances in zinc sensors for studying zinc release events from pancreatic cells
(SPIE, 2006-10-25)
This paper describes the fabrication and characterization of the analytical properties of fluorescence-based zinc ion sensing glass slides and antibody based zinc sensors and their application in monitoring zinc release ...
Novel fluorescent oxygen indicator for intracellular oxygen measurements
(SPIE, 2002-07-01)
Intracellular oxygen concentration is of primary importance
in determining numerous physiological and pathological processes in
biological systems. In this paper, we describe the application of
the oxygen sensing ...
Addition of Fluorescence Lifetime Spectroscopy to the Tool Kit Used to Study the Formation and Degradation of Luminescent Quantum Dots in Solution
(ACS Publications, 2017-02-28)
The increasing commercialization of consumer electronic products that make use of II–VI semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) has raised significant concerns about their impact on natural systems and human health once they are ...
Gold Nanoparticle−Quantum Dot−Polystyrene Microspheres as Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer Probes for Bioassays
(ACS Publications, 2011-01-31)
The paper describes the development of highly sensitive particle-based fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) probes that do not use molecular fluorophores as donors and acceptors. In these probes, CdSe/ZnS luminescent ...
