  • Publication number: 20050026146
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the simultaneous dissection in specific positions of filiform organic molecular chains, in particular DNA. The aim of the invention is to provided a method, by which a highly specific dissection can take place on certain sequences that can be freely selected and simultaneously on numerous filiform molecules. To achieve this, nanoparticles (1) are provided with a molecular chain (11) of any predeterminable sequence, which is selected to be complementary to a sequence of a molecule (2) that is to be dissected, said molecular chain(s) (11) is/are hybridised in the usual manner with the molecule, or specifically linked to said molecule in another manner and the nanoparticles (1) are subsequently subjected to a high-energy radiation of at least one wavelength, which can be absorbed by said nanoparticles (1).
