  • Redox potential mediated, heterogeneous, carbon nanotube biosensing
    Publication number: 20070278111
    Abstract: This invention relates to the field of nanotechnology. Specifically the invention describes a nanosensor for the detection of an analyte in which the redox potential in solution is altered thereby causing changes in carbon nanotube conductance.
    Type: Application
    Filed: September 30, 2005
    Publication date: December 6, 2007
    Inventors: Salah Boussaad, Bruce Diner, Janine Fan, Vsevolod Rostovtsev, Ajit Krishnan
  • Small molecule mediated biosensing using carbon nanotubes in homogeneous format
    Publication number: 20070238142
    Abstract: Nanosensors for detecting target analytes and methods of detecting analytes have been developed in which a small molecule effector concentration is altered thereby causing changes in carbon nanotube conductance. The nanosensor operates in a homogeneous format, not requiring the immobilization of the target analyte for detection.
    Type: Application

    Inventors: Salah Boussaad, Bruce Diner, Janine Fan, Vsevolod Rostovtsev
  • Redox potential mediated carbon nanotubes biosensing in homogeneous format
    Publication number: 20070227906
    Abstract: Nanosensors for detecting analytes and methods of detecting analytes have been developed in which the redox potential of a redox effector in solution is altered thereby causing changes in carbon nanotube conductance. The analyte may be detected in solution, eliminating the need for immobilizing the analyte on a support.
