Effects of Superparamagnetic Nanoparticle Clusters on the Polymerase Chain Reaction
The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method is widely used for the reproduction and amplification of specific DNA segments, and a novel PCR method using nanomaterials such as gold nanoparticles has recently been reported. This paper reports on the effects of superparamagnetic nanoparticles on PCR amplification without an external magnetic field, and clarifies the mechanism behind the effects of ...
متن کاملMetal nanoparticle assisted polymerase chain reaction for strain typing of Salmonella Typhi.
Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi (S. Typhi) is the causative agent of typhoid fever and remains a major health threat in most of the developing countries. The prompt diagnosis of typhoid directly from the patient's blood requires high level of sensitivity and specificity. Some of us were the first to report PCR based diagnosis of typhoid. This approach has since then been reported by many sci...
متن کاملNanoparticle-Assisted STED Nanoscopy with Gold Nanospheres
We demonstrate stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy with 20 nm gold nanospheres coated by fluorescently doped silica. We demonstrate significantly improved spatial resolution down to 75 nm, which is the first time that hybrid NPs are used in STED imaging beyond the diffraction limit of confocal microscopy. Unlike previous demonstrations of super-resolution with metal nanoparticles wi...
متن کاملNanoparticle-assisted surface immobilization of phospholipid liposomes.
Phospholipid liposomes (100-200 nm diameter) are deposited onto solid substrates after stabilizing them against fusion with the solid by allowing charged nanoparticles to adsorb at approximately 25% surface coverage. The immobilized vesicles remain stable over a period of days. Epifluorescence imaging shows that they diffuse freely over surfaces with the same charge but adsorb tightly onto surf...
متن کاملGold Nanoparticle-Assisted AFM Study of DNA Damage and Repair
The purpose of this research is to investigate gold nanoparticles as a potential scaffold for the characterization of DNA damage and repair using atomic force microscopy (AFM) techniques. The procedure consists of functionalizing the surface of gold nanoparticles with DNA which are then immobilized onto amine modified silicon or glass surfaces. Our objective is to examine various lesions in ind...
