چکیده

Specifically designed dimeric, planar trimeric, tetrameric, pentameric, and 3D hexameric assemblies of Au nanoparticles were constructed from self-assembling DNA modules that contain disulfide groups, for attachment to the nanoparticles, and covalently linked 2,5-bis(2-thienyl)pyrrole (SNS) monomers. Treatment of these arrays with horseradish peroxidase and H2O2 (HRP/H2O2) results in bond formation between the SNS monomers that cross-links or ligates the DNA modules making the assemblies permanent (“fixed”).

3D DNA Crystals and Nanotechnology

DNA’s molecular recognition properties have made it one of the most widely used biomacromolecular construction materials. The programmed assembly of DNA oligonucleotides has been used to create complex 2D and 3D self-assembled architectures and to guide the assembly of other molecules. The origins of DNA nanotechnology are rooted in the goal of assembling DNA molecules into designed periodic ar...

Construction of pIRES2 vector encoding truncated NS3 of HCV and IL-18 for DNA vaccine studies

Introduction: Long term complications of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection include fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma and although the disease is treatable with the newly introduced direct acting antivirals, but factors such as drug resistance, viral genotype and adverse effects can limit the effectiveness of therapy. Therefore, development of effective, safe and affordable proph...

Formation of precise 2D Au particle arrays via thermally induced dewetting on pre-patterned substrates

The fabrication of precise 2D Au nanoparticle arrays over a large area is presented. The technique was based on pre-patterning of the substrate before the deposition of a thin Au film, and the creation of periodic particle arrays by subsequent dewetting induced by annealing. Two types of pre-patterned substrates were used: The first comprised an array of pyramidal pits and the second an array o...

Adaptive beamforming in row-column addressed arrays for 3D ultrasound imaging

In recent years, to reduce the complexity of implementation, the use of 2D arrays with restricted row-column addressing has been considered for 3D ultrasound imaging. In this paper, two methods of adaptive beamforming based on the minimum variance method are represented in such a way that the computational load is much less than using the full adaptive beamforming method. In both proposed metho...
