Abstract:
Applications in nanomedicine, such as diagnostics and targeted therapeutics, rely on the detection and targeting of membrane biomarkers. The present invention, in one embodiment, utilizes quantitative profiling, spatial mapping, and multiplexing of cancer biomarkers using functionalized quantum dots. This approach provides highly selective targeting molecular markers for pancreatic cancer with extremely low levels of non-specific binding and provides quantitative spatial information of biomarker distribution on a single cell, which is important since tumors cell populations are inherently heterogeneous. The quantitative measurements (number of molecules per square micron) is validated using flow cytometry and demonstrated using multiplexed quantitative profiling using color-coded quantum dots.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a CoPtP thin film having very high perpendicular magnetic anisotropy and a method for manufacturing the same. The method for manufacturing a CoPtP alloy thin film according to the present invention includes the steps of preparing an electroplating solution including CoSO4·7 H2O at 0.05˜0.2 M, H2PtCl6 at 0.005˜0.02 M, and NaH2PO2 at 0.01˜0.4 M, and dipping a basic material into the electroplating solution and forming the CoPtP alloy thin film on the basic material by electroplating at a low temperature.
