  • Displacement-based fluorescent microRNA biosensors : design principles and analytical metrics

    Creator:
    Larkey, Nicholas E.
    Abstract:
    One post-transcriptional mechanism that regulates the progression of cancer and other diseases involves small 22-23 nucleotide sequences called microRNA (miR). Early detection of small changes in concentration of these biomarkers holds potential to diagnose diseases at their earliest stages. Use of current nucleic-acid based biosensors, like molecular beacons, for in...

  • CoLocalized Excitation Emission Resolution : A CLEER approach for multicolor fluorescence analysis

    Creator:
    Almlie, C. Kyle
    Abstract:
    Fluorescence has proven to be a robust and powerful method of analysis in numerous fields: forensics, pharmaceutics, geology, food science, and environmental sciences have all developed a large collection of fluorescence instruments and methods to overcome application-specific challenges. Biological applications saw the same development of a fluorescence toolkit with methods...

  • Gold Nanostars: Spectroscopic and Physical Properties

    Creator:
    Zhou, Lixia
    Abstract:
    Tethering fluorophores on metal nanoparticles for metal enhanced fluorescence (MEF) has attracted a lot of attention from scientists interested in fluorescence based approaches. MEF has many benefits in fluorescence related techniques, because the analytical signal increases and enables potentially lower detection limits or better sensitivity. Many types of nanoparticles have...

  • Innovative Bioanalytical Tools & Methods for Combinatorial Non-Coding RNA Analysis

    Creator:
    Zhang, Lulu
    Abstract:
    Recently researchers have discovered that groups of small non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) play regulatory roles in gene expression and participate in various biological processes. For example, pathogenesis of many diseases, cell cycle regulation, and signaling pathways. Intracellular and live cell imaging of small ncRNA groups will reveal their relative expression levels...
