چکیده
A quantum dot method for highly efficient labelling of single adenoviral particles is developed. The technique has no impact on viral fitness and allows the imaging and tracking of virus binding and internalisation events using a variety of techniques including imaging cytometry and confocal microscopy. The method is applied to characterise the tropism of different adenoviral vectors.

Quantitative measurement of quantum dot uptake at the cell population level using microfluidic evanescent-wave-based flow cytometry.
The intracellular uptake of nanoparticles (NPs) is an important process for molecular and cellular labeling, drug/gene delivery and medical imaging. The vast majority of investigations into NP uptake have been conducted using confocal imaging that is limited to observation of a small number of cells. Such data may not yield quantitative information about the cell population due to the tiny samp...
متن کاملQuantum current modeling in nano-transistors with a quantum dot
Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) serve as a new class of ‘zero dimensional’ nanomaterial’s in thecarbon class with sizes below 10 nm. As light emitting nanocrystals, QDs are assembled from semiconductormaterials, from the elements in the periodic groups of II-VI, III-V or IV-VI, mainly thanks to impacts of quantum confinement QDs have unique optical properties such as brighter, highly pho...
متن کاملQuantitative Analysis of Nucleic Acid Hybridization on Magnetic Particles and Quantum Dot-Based Probes
In the present study we describe sandwich design hybridization probes consisting of magnetic particles (MP) and quantum dots (QD) with target DNA, and their application in the detection of avian influenza virus (H5N1) sequences. Hybridization of 25-, 40-, and 100-mer target DNA with both probes was analyzed and quantified by flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy on the scale of single part...
متن کاملRobust high-throughput kinetic analysis of apoptosis with real-time high-content live-cell imaging
Quantitative and kinetic analyses of apoptotic cell death are integral components of exploring cell biology, measuring cellular stress responses, and performing high-throughput genomic/RNAi/drug screens. Here, we present a detailed method that integrates robust kinetic real-time high-content imaging with Annexin V labelling to provide a highly sensitive, accurate, simple and zero-handling appro...
متن کاملSensitive and multiplexed detection of proteomic antigens via quantum dot aggregation.
UNLABELLED A rapid, single-step, solution-phase method for quantifying multiple proteomic biomarkers is described. Nanoscale quantum dot-antibody conjugates self-assemble into microscale aggregates in the presence of a specific antigen through antibody-antigen molecular recognition. These aggregates are easily discriminated from the individual components by flow cytometry. Quantum dot (QD) aggr...
