Selective Labeling of Proteins on Living Cell Membranes Using Fluorescent Nanodiamond Probes

Selective Labeling of Proteins on Living Cell Membranes Using Fluorescent Nanodiamond Probes

The impeccable photostability of fluorescent nanodiamonds (FNDs) is an ideal property for use in fluorescence imaging of proteins in living cells. However, such an application requires highly specific labeling of the target proteins with FNDs. Furthermore, the surface of unmodified FNDs tends to ads...
