Colloidal semiconductor quantum dots : from synthesis to photonic applications
… more specifically PbS and PbSe quantum dots (Qdots) with a typical diameter of 2-10nm, using wet chemical techniques. These materials are promising for telecom applications, as their band gap depends on the particle size and is tunable over the entire near-infrared spectral range. The main aim …

Multiplexed angiogenic biomarker quantification on single cells
… the unique spectral properties of quantum dots (Qdots), and combines Qdots with qFlow cytometry, to dually quantify VEGFR1 and VEGFR2 on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). To enable this quantification, I reduce nonspecific binding between Qdot-conjugated antibodies and cells, …

In vitro selection of aptamers using quantum dot-assisted capillary electrophoresis SELEX
… sequences. To solve this problem, quantum dots (Qdots) with covalently bound target molecules can be employed to effectively increase the size of small molecular targets and allow efficient separation based on the Qdots’ mobility. As proof of concept for the use of Qdots in CE-SELEX, we used …

Photoactivatable Organic and Inorganic Nanoparticles in Cancer Therapeutics and Biosensing
… tissue was tackled by developing quantum dot (Qdot) biosensors with the aim of achieving fluorescence reporting of intracellular small molecule/drug delivery. For fluorescence reporting prior expertise in control of the fluorescence state of Qdots was employed, where redox active ligands can …

A single molecule approach to investigate how AP1 transcriptional regulators find their target sites on DNA
… (OAF) microscopy was used to image Quantum dot (Qdot) conjugated proteins in vitro. The protein combinations cFos:cFos, cJun:cJun, cFos:cJun, FosW and FosW+cJun (Mason et al. 2006, Worrall and Mason 2011) were studied interacting with the different DNA substrates and within the AP1 family. 71 ± …

Sensing with Nanomaterials: Controlling Transport, Single Molecule Detection, and Voltage Sensing
Two-dimensional materials provide an intriguing means to not only study physical phenomena but also serve as disruptive membranes for ionic selectivity and sensing based applications. Atomic thinness of these materials affords a unique environment in an all-surface material to unlock challenges …
