Xenon biosensor amplification via dendrimer-cage supramolecular constructs.

چکیده
Polyamidoamine dendrimers were synthesized with a single biotin moiety and used with cryptophane-A cages to form supramolecular biosensor constructs. These new biosensors amplified the NMR signals obtained from polarized xenon 8 times more than the original Xe biosensor.

Functionalized xenon as a biosensor.
The detection of biological molecules and their interactions is a significant component of modern biomedical research. In current biosensor technologies, simultaneous detection is limited to a small number of analytes by the spectral overlap of their signals. We have developed an NMR-based xenon biosensor that capitalizes on the enhanced signal-to-noise, spectral simplicity, and chemical-shift ...
متن کاملOptimization of xenon biosensors for detection of protein interactions.
Hyperpolarized 129Xe NMR spectroscopy can detect the presence of specific low-concentration biomolecular analytes by means of a xenon biosensor that consists of a water-soluble, targeted cryptophane-A cage that encapsulates the xenon. In this work, we use the prototypical biotinylated xenon biosensor to determine the relationship between the molecular composition of the xenon biosensor and the ...
متن کاملPressure Dependent Signal Enhancement in Hyper-CEST
Introduction The so called hyper-CEST method promises tremendous potential on molecule-specific MR imaging using hyperpolarized Xe caged in functionalized cryptophane cages [1]. It was shown that these biosensors can be utilized as highly sensitive temperature probes [2] and that molecule-specific signals in the lower nM regime can be detected when experimental parameters are optimized to yield...
متن کاملDevelopment of a functionalized xenon biosensor.
NMR-based biosensors that utilize laser-polarized xenon offer potential advantages beyond current sensing technologies. These advantages include the capacity to simultaneously detect multiple analytes, the applicability to in vivo spectroscopy and imaging, and the possibility of "remote" amplified detection. Here, we present a detailed NMR characterization of the binding of a biotin-derivatized...

A selective aptasensor was developed using the electrochemical transduction method for the ultrasensitive detection of cocaine. In this method, dendrimer-quantum dot (Den-QD) bioconjugate was utilized as a specific nanocomposite to efficiently fabricate the aptasensor. CdTe QD, which carries highly significant properties, was immobilized on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE), and po...
