Polymer-Decorated Carbon Nanotubes as Transducers for Label-Free Photonic Biosensors Auteur(s): Villemin Elise, Gravel Edmond, Izard N., Filoramo Arianna, Vivien Laurent, Doris Eric (Article) Publié: Chemistry - A European Journal, vol. 21 p.18649-18653 (2015) PMID 26567917 DOI: 10.1002/chem.201503741 WoS: WOS:000368280400024 3 Citations Résumé: A biosensor taking advantage of the optical properties of sorted carbon nanotubes has been developed. A polyfluorene polymer bearing azido groups was synthesized and used for the selective extraction of semi-conducting nanotubes from the bulk population. The resulting polymer-decorated nanotubes were then conjugated by click-chemistry to a ligand unit (biotin), and the sensing properties of the biotinylated nanotubes were investigated by photoluminescence measurements, upon interaction with the streptavidin target. |
