Aptamer-Functionalized Hydrogel Microparticles for Fast Visual Detection of Mercury(II) and Adenosine
(American Chemical Society, 2012-04-25)With a low optical background, high loading capacity, and good biocompatibility, hydrogels are ideal materials for immobilization of biopolymers to develop optical biosensors. We recently immobilized mercury and lead binding ... -
Biomimetic sensing based on chemically induced assembly of a signaling DNA aptamer on a fluid bilayer membrane
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2012-04-18)The adenosine aptamer was split into two halves and linked to a fluid liposome surface; addition of adenosine resulted in aptamer assembly, which did not occur if the split aptamer was attached to silica nanoparticles, ... -
Light-Activated Metal-Coordinated Supramolecular Complexes with Charge-Directed Self-Assembly
(American Chemical Society, 2013-02-21)Metal-coordinated materials are attractive for many applications including catalysis, sensing, and controlled release. Adenine and its derivatives have been widely used to generate many coordination complexes, polymers, ...
