A quartz crystal microbalance-based molecular ruler for biopolymers.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We developed a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) based molecular ruler that measures the length of surface immobilized, hydrated biopolymers (DNA and proteins). These biopolymers acted as stakes that solidified surrounding liquid at high frequency vibration in QCM measurements, which led to a simple linear frequency-thickness relation.

Atomic Force Microscopy and Quartz Crystal Microbalance Study of the Lectin–Carbohydrate Interaction Kinetics
Two analytical methods, atomic force microscopy and quartz crystal microbalance, were applied to the study of the reaction kinetics occurring between concanavalin A and carboxypeptidase Y, presenting the specific lectin–carbohydrate recognition. The dissociation rate constants for concanavalin A–carboxypeptidase Y complex obtained using both atomic force microscopy and quartz crystal microbalan...
متن کاملMolecular Imprinting Technology in Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM) Sensors
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) as artificial antibodies have received considerable scientific attention in the past years in the field of (bio)sensors since they have unique features that distinguish them from natural antibodies such as robustness, multiple binding sites, low cost, facile preparation and high stability under extreme operation conditions (higher pH and temperature values,...

Two novel dodecasubstituted carbohydrate nanoplatforms based on molecular Borromean rings and dodecaamine cages have been prepared for use in evaluating the importance of the spatial distribution of carbohydrates in their interaction with lectins. The binding affinities of the glyconanoplatforms were characterized using quartz crystal microbalance technology and compared with a monovalent refer...
