Towards the Development of a Quantum Dot based Bioprobe for Intracellular Investigations of Nucleic Acid Hybridization Events using Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer
The unique spectroscopic properties of quantum dots (QDs) are of interest for application in intracellular studies of gene expression. QDs derivatized with single-stranded probe oligonucleotides were used to detect complementary target sequences via hybridization and fluorescence resonance energy tr...
