Combining the inherent scaffolding provided by DNA structure with spatial control over
fluorophore positioning allows the creation of DNA-based photonic wires with the capacity to …

A new quantum dot (QD)-aptamer (apt) beacon that acts by folding-induced dissociation of a
DNA intercalating dye, BOBO-3 (B), is demonstrated with label-free thrombin detection. The …

Nanoassemblies are formed via self-assembly of ZnS capped CdSe quantum dots (QD) and
perylene bisimide dyes (PBI). Upon assembly formation with functionalized dye molecules …

Abstract A “bottom-up” self-assembly strategy was used for the directed formation of two
types of heterogeneous organic-inorganic nanoassemblies based on colloidal …

We report molecular functionalization of the promising manganite nanoparticles La0. 67Sr0.
33MnO3 (LSMO) for their solubilization in aqueous environments. The functionalization of …

Detection of aberrant promoter hypermethylation of tumor suppressor genes can be used as
a prognostic or predictive marker for carcinogenesis. Since epigenetic modifying agents are …

Functional dye molecules, such as porphyrins, attached to CdSe quantum dots (QDs)
through anchoring meso‐pyridyl substituents, form quasi‐stable nanoassemblies. This fact …
