Ultra-sensitive detection of prion protein with a long range resonance energy transfer strategy.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An ultra-sensitive detection strategy for prion protein is proposed based on the long range resonance energy transfer (LrRET) from quantum dots (QDs) to the surface of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), in which process energy donor-acceptor separation distance ranges from 9 to 22 nm.

Graphene oxide as an efficient signal-to-background enhancer for DNA detection with a long range resonance energy transfer strategy.
A long range resonance energy transfer (LrRET) strategy for label-free and sensitive DNA detection is outlined by introducing graphene oxide (GO) as an efficient signal-to-background enhancer, giving a limit of determination (3σ) of 0.31 nM.
متن کاملColorimetric and ultra-sensitive fluorescence resonance energy transfer determination of H2O2 and glucose by multi-functional Au nanoclusters.
Ultra-sensitive colorimetric determination of H2O2 is accomplished based on the intrinsic peroxidase-like activity of Au nanoclusters (AuNCs) stabilized by glutathione (GSH). The color change of 3,3,5,5-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) catalyzed by AuNCs offers an indirect method to measure glucose. This sensing platform makes use of a dual optical signal change, including the color change in an aque...

Background: Whispering gallery modes (WGM) biosensors are ultrasensitive systems that can measure amount of adsorbed layer onto the micro-cavity surface. They have many applications including protein, peptide growth, DNA and bacteria detection, molecular properties measurements and specific interaction and drug table recognitions due to their high sensitivity, compact size and label free sensin...
متن کاملPlasmonic hotspots of dynamically assembled nanoparticles in nanocapillaries: Towards a micro ribonucleic acid profiling platform.
Plasmonic hot spots, generated by controlled 20-nm Au nanoparticle (NP) assembly, are shown to suppress fluorescent quenching effects of metal NPs, such that hair-pin FRET (Fluorescence resonance energy transfer) probes can achieve label-free ultra-sensitive quantification. The micron-sized assembly is a result of intense induced NP dipoles by focused electric fields through conic nanocapillari...
متن کاملGold nanoparticles as a probe for prion determination via resonance light scattering method.
Dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) modified gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were used as a highly selective probe for the detection of prion proteins. We discovered that AuNPs undergo aggregation selectively in the presence of recombinant prion protein (rPrP), and such selective aggregation enhanced the resonance light scattering (RLS) intensity from AuNPs tremendously. Based on this phenomenon, we establish...
