NIR fluorescent biotinylated cyanine dye: optical properties and combination with quantum dots as a potential sensing device.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a water soluble and fluorescent biotinylated probe derived from a carbocyanine dye. A high efficiency of energy transfer was measured when the dyes were placed on the surface of streptavidin conjugated quantum dots. The system is a model platform for potential application as a FRET-based fluorescent sensor.

Synthesis and Optical Study of CdZnTe Quantum Dots
The comparison of growth processes and fluorescent properties of CdZnTe semiconductor quantum dots that are synthesized in different concentrations of Zn2+ in water are discussed in this paper. The samples are characterized through absorbtion (UV) and photoluminescence spectra (PL). The results show that when the reaction time is prolonged, the absorption peak and fluorescent emission peak pres...

متن کاملEvaluation of quantum dot immunofluorescence and a digital CMOS imaging system as an alternative to conventional organic fluorescence dyes and laser scanning for quantifying protein microarrays.
Organic fluorescent dyes are widely used for the visualization of bound antibody in a variety of immunofluorescence assays. However, the detection equipment is often expensive, fragile, and hard to deploy widely. Quantum dots (Qdot) are nanocrystals made of semiconductor materials that emit light at different wavelengths according to the size of the crystal, with increased brightness and stabil...
متن کاملMulti-dye theranostic nanoparticle platform for bioimaging and cancer therapy
BACKGROUND Theranostic nanomaterials composed of fluorescent and photothermal agents can both image and provide a method of disease treatment in clinical oncology. For in vivo use, the near-infrared (NIR) window has been the focus of the majority of studies, because of greater light penetration due to lower absorption and scatter of biological components. Therefore, having both fluorescent and ...
متن کاملSynthesis of CdTe quantum dots coated with biocompatible materials and investigation of their identification Properties
Fingerprint identification or dactyloscopy is a method for human identification. The impressions left by a human finger on surfaces are not visible to naked eyes (latent fingerprint); therefore, they require revelation to become visible and identified. Within the last century, several fingerprint revelation techniques such as optical, physical, and chemical were studied. These traditional metho...
