NANOPARTICLES WITH MOLECULAR RECOGNITION ELEMENTS

摘要

A method of multiple protein biomarker detection, comprising providing at quantum dot-antibody conjugates that have an affinity for at least two different protein biomarkers; contacting the conjugates with a sample from a subject; allowing the proteins to bridge the antibodies, forming protein biomarker/quantum dot-antibody conjugate agglomerates; detecting the presence of the biomarkers by excitation of the agglomerates.
