Tagging of avidin immobilized beads with biotinylated YAG:Ce3+ nanocrystal phosphor.

چکیده
YAG:Ce3+ nanoparticles 9.5+/-1.2 nm in diameter have been synthesized from aluminium isopropoxide and acetates of yttrium and cerium in 1,4-butanediol (1,4-BD) by autoclave treatment at 300 degrees C for 2 h. After replacing 1,4-BD by ultrapure water, NH2 groups were introduced on the surface of YAG:Ce3+ nanoparticles by addition of 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane then biotinylation with sulfo-NHS-LC-biotin. We demonstrated that avidin immobilized beads are tagged by biotinylated YAG:Ce3+ nanoparticles by the selective avidin-biotin interaction, furnishing a green fluorescent image on excitation with blue light. This result indicates that YAG:Ce3+ nanoparticle phosphors have much potential in biological applications.

Binding analysis of ferritin with heme using α-casein and biotinylated-hemin: detection of heme-binding capacity of Dpr derived from heme synthesis-deficient Streptococcus mutans.
Bacterial and mammalian ferritins are known to bind heme. The use of α-casein and biotinylated hemin could be applicable to detection of protein-bound heme and of proteins with heme-binding capacity, respectively. Although commercial horse spleen ferritin and purified horse spleen ferritin (L:H subunit ratio=4) bound to an α-casein-coated plate, and this binding could be inhibited by hemin, rec...
متن کاملDifferential recovery of biotinylated microbial proteins using monomeric or polymeric avidin.
Vol. 40, No. 5 (2006) The binding of avidin to biotin is the strongest known noncovalent biological interaction [dissociation constants (Kd) approximately 10 -15 M] between a protein and ligand (1). The high affinity and specificity of the avidin-biotin interaction is utilized for enriching biotin-containing proteins from mixtures (2,3). Water-soluble Nhydroxysulfosuccinimide (sulfo-NHS) deriva...

In this solid-phase two-site enzyme immunoassay for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), three monoclonal anti-HBs are used: 5D3 (IgM) is immobilized on plastic beads; 5C3 (IgG2a) and 5C 11 (IgG1), labeled with biotin, are used as the first conjugate. Horseradish peroxidase covalently linked to avidin is the second conjugate. First, serum or plasma is incubated with the antibody-coated bead and...
متن کاملNew fluorometric enzyme immunoassay for 17beta-estradiol by homogeneous reaction using biotinylated estradiol.
A new fluorometric enzyme immunoassay for 17beta-estradiol (E2) using biotinylated estradiol (BE) as a probe ligand, is described. In this method, E2 is detected indirectly by a solid-phase avidin-biotin binding assay, in which the biotin is immobilized on a microtiter plate (biotin-plate). After the competitive reaction between E2 and BE for the anti-E2 antibody in solution, the free E2 and BE...

A combustion synthesis method has been developed for synthesis of Eu2+ doped CaAlSiN₃ phosphor and its photoluminescence properties were investigated. Ca, Al, Si, and Eu₂O₃ powders were used as the Ca, Al, Si and Eu sources. The addition of NaN₃, NH₄Cl and Si₃N₄ powders was found to increase significantly the product yield. These powders were mixed and pressed into a compact, which was then wra...
