Detection of Bacterial Endospores in Soil by Terbium Fluorescence
Spore formation is a survival mechanism of microorganisms when facing unfavorable environmental conditions resulting in "dormant" states. We investigated the occurrence of bacterial endospores in soils from various locations including grasslands (pasture, meadow), allotment gardens, and forests, as well as fluvial sediments. Bacterial spores are characterized by their high content of dipicolini...
متن کاملTime-Resolved Luminescence Microscopy and Microarray Using Europium Chelate Labels
The luminescent Eu complex, DTBTA-Eu, is highly stable in terms of ligand-metal dissociation, and can be labelled to amino groups of proteins and other bio-molecules. Owing to the long lifetime of Eu luminescence, time-resolved measurement of DTBTA-Eu removes background fluorescence and enhances the sensitivity of the labelled materials. This property was applied to time-resolved luminescence m...
متن کاملA versatile method for quantification of DNA and PCR products based on time-resolved EuIII luminescence.
A versatile and robust method for the determination of DNA and PCR products (<500 bp) is presented, based on a mix of an Eu(III) chelate and acridine orange (AO). The nucleic acid selective stains acridine orange (AO) and ethidium bromide (EB) quench the luminescence of the bimetallic [Eu(2)(L(C2))(3)] and of other monometallic chelates such as the macrocyclic complex [Eu(L(kel))], even at very...
متن کاملLanthanide-based time-resolved luminescence immunoassays
The sensitive and specific detection of analytes such as proteins in biological samples is critical for a variety of applications, for example disease diagnosis. In immunoassays a signal in response to the concentration of analyte present is generated by use of antibodies labeled with radioisotopes, luminophores, or enzymes. All immunoassays suffer to some extent from the problem of the backgro...
متن کاملTime-resolved luminescence of semiconductor heterostructures in high magnetic fields
We report on time-resolved luminescence in GaAs quantum wells in high magnetic fields up to 21 T. Results on resonant tunneling and exciton relaxation including spin flip are presented.
