Generation of a Focused Poly(amino ether) Library: Polymer-mediated Transgene Delivery and Gold-Nanorod based Theranostic Systems
A focused library of twenty-one cationic poly(amino ethers) was synthesized following ring-opening polymerization of two diglycidyl ethers by different oligoamines. The polymers were screened in parallel for plasmid DNA (pDNA) delivery, and transgene expression efficacies of individual polymers were compared to those of 25 kDa polyethylenimine (PEI), a current standard for polymer-mediated tran...
متن کاملProtein immobilisation on perpendicularly aligned gold tipped nanorod assemblies.
A multi component assembly consisting of the redox protein cytochrome c (cyt c) immobilised onto vertically aligned gold tipped semiconductor nanorods is described. Cyt c was successfully immobilised using a thiol linker. A faradaic response demonstrated that the protein is electroactive in this ultra high density array.
متن کاملSide-by-side and end-to-end gold nanorod assemblies for environmental toxin sensing.
Controllable assembly of nanoscale building blocks (monomers) is a necessary part of practical realization of the unique optical, electrical, magnetic, and chemical properties of nanoscale matter in macroscale materials. Such assemblies also contain much fundamental information about collective behavior of nanocolloids, which we are just beginning to understand. The key decisive factors for the...
متن کاملAttomolar DNA detection with chiral nanorod assemblies
Nanoscale plasmonic assemblies display exceptionally strong chiral optical activity. So far, their structural design was primarily driven by challenges related to metamaterials whose practical applications are remote. Here we demonstrate that gold nanorods assembled by the polymerase chain reaction into DNA-bridged chiral systems have promising analytical applications. The chiroplasmonic activi...
متن کاملParallel Synthesis of Poly(amino ether)-Templated Plasmonic Nanoparticles for Transgene Delivery
Plasmonic nanoparticles have been increasingly investigated for numerous applications in medicine, sensing, and catalysis. In particular, gold nanoparticles have been investigated for separations, sensing, drug/nucleic acid delivery, and bioimaging. In addition, silver nanoparticles demonstrate antibacterial activity, resulting in potential application in treatments against microbial infections...
