Nano-Engineering Of Magnetic Particles For Biocatalysis And Bioseparation

Yu C.H., Lo C.C.H., Yeung C.M.Y., Tam K., Tsang S.C., University of Reading, UK

Magnetic nanoparticles encapsulated in a thin coating as magnetic separable nano-vehicle for chemical species is a hot but challenging area. The stability of the small magnetic body remains a key issue. In this meeting, we [...]

New Light Induced Molecular Switch allows Sterically Oriented Micrometer Sized Immobilization of Biomolecules

Snabe T., Neves-Petersen M.T., Fojan P., Klitgaard S., Neves-Petersen M.T., Petersen S.B., Aalborg University, DK

Fundamental knowledge on protein structures and the effect of ultraviolet light on these structures has paved the way for the development of a unique light-based immobilization technology that allows oriented protein immobilization onto micrometer sized [...]

Design and Applications of a Novel Type of Hairpin Probes: Addressable Bipartite Molecular Hook (ABMH)

Landré J.B.P., Ruryk A., Schlicksbier T., Russwurm S., Deigner H.-P., University of East Anglia, UK

ABMHs but not TMBs display the characteristic melt curves obtained with MBs. Moreover, ABMHs specificity in solution (Figure 2) is similar to those of MBs (i.e. differentiation between a perfect match and a 1 mismatch [...]
