Detection of pathogenic mycobacteria based on functionalized quantum dots coupled with immunomagnetic separation.
Mycobacteria have always proven difficult to identify due to their low growth rate and fastidious nature. Therefore molecular biology and more recently nanotechnology, have been exploited from early on for the detection of these pathogens. Here we present the first stage of development of an assay i...
