Quantum dots-amplified electrochemical cytochrome P450 phenotype sensor for tamoxifen, a breast cancer drug
(University of the Western Cape, 2017)
Breast cancer is regarded as the most common cancer in South Africa and its rate of
occurrence is increasing. About one in every 31 South African women are at the risk of
developing breast cancer and early diagnosis and ...
Fabrication of type-I indium-based near-infrared emitting quantum dots for biological imaging applications
(University of the Western Cape, 2013)
Semiconductor nanocrystals or quantum dots (QDs) are fluorescent nanometer-sized particles
which have physical dimensions that are smaller than the excitonic Bohr radius, large surface
area-to-volume ratios, broad ...
Electrochemical and optical modulation of selenide and telluride ternary alloy quantum dots genosensors
(University of the Western Cape, 2012)
Electroanalytical and optical properties of nanoscale materials are very important for biosensing applications as well as for understanding the unique one-dimensional carrier transport mechanism. One-dimensional semiconductor ...
Quantum dots genosensor for Her2/Neu oncogene - a breast cancer biomarker
(University of the Western Cape, 2014)
The human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER)-family of receptor tyrosine kinases; human epidermal growth factor receptor 1, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 and human ...
Development of Impedimetric Immunosensor for Fumonisin on Polyanilino-Carbon Nanotubes Doped with Palladium Telluride Nanocrystals
(University of the Western Cape, 2013)
Immunosensors are affinity ligand-based biosensor solid-state devices in which the immunochemical reaction is coupled to a transducer. The specificity of the molecular recognition of antigens by antibodies to form a stable ...
