Bioresponsive nanosensors in medical imaging.
Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles have been established as sensitive probes for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). While the majority of specific nanosensors are based on sterically stabilized iron oxide particles, the focus of this review is on the use of very small iron oxide particles (VSOPs) that are electrostatically stabilized by an anionic citrate acid shell. We used VSOPs to dev...
متن کاملBiosensors, Nanosensors and Biochips: Frontiers in Environmental and Medical Diagnostics
This presentation describes three areas of research related to the development of biosensors, nanosensors and biochips for chemical, biological and medical analysis: (1) nanostructured plasmonics-based probes for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) biochemical analysis, and (2) nanosensors for in vivo analysis of a single cell and (3) multifunctional biochips for medical diagnostics. INTRO...
متن کاملPlasmonic nanosensors for imaging intracellular biomarkers in live cells.
Here we present the first intracellular molecular imaging platform using multifunctional gold nanoparticles which incorporate both cytosolic delivery and targeting moieties on the same particle. The utility of these intracellular sensors was demonstrated by monitoring actin rearrangement in live fibroblasts. We observed a strong molecular specific optical signal associated with effective target...
متن کاملBioresponsive matrices in drug delivery
For years, the field of drug delivery has focused on (1) controlling the release of a therapeutic and (2) targeting the therapeutic to a specific cell type. These research endeavors have concentrated mainly on the development of new degradable polymers and molecule-labeled drug delivery vehicles. Recent interest in biomaterials that respond to their environment have opened new methods to trigge...
