摘要:
A process for the production of fluorescent nanoparticles selected from noble metal, silica or polymer nanoparticles which comprises: 1. A process for the production of fluorescent nanoparticles selected from noble metal or silica nanoparticles which comprises: (1) providing a platform of nanoparticles (2) covering the surfaces of the nanoparticles to saturation with thiol-terminated polymers by one of the following methods: 1. mixing the nanoparticles with methoxy-(polyethylene glycol)-thiol and biotin-(polyethylene glycol)- thiol 2. mixing the nanoparticles with fluorescently-labeled methoxy-(polyethylene glycol)-thiol and/or biotin-(polyethylene glycol)-thiol 3. coordinating thiol and biotin thiol to the surfaces of the nanoparticles by a non-covalent bond and 4. directly conjugating methoxy-thiol and biotin-thiol to the surfaces of the nanoparticles, so that the polymers bind to the surfaces of the nanoparticles as a brush layer via thiol particle coordination of the thiol ends so that the biotin or methoxy ends are free and (3) homogeneously mixing the resulting biotin nanoparticles with fluorescent avidin or a derivative thereof in proportions such that the final concentration is 1 biotin molecule for every 10 to 1000 avidin molecules in the fluorescent multi-coloured nanoparticle-avidin complexes, each being capable of having a different targeting molecule, and which may be mixed with biotin related targets, and the fluorescent labeled avidin or a derivative thereof being spaced away from the particle surface, thus reducing or removing the potential quenching of the dye.Linvention porte sur un procédé pour la production de nanoparticules fluorescentes choisies parmi les nanoparticules de métal noble, de silice ou de polymère, qui comprend : 1. un procédé pour la production de nanoparticules fluorescentes choisies parmi les nanoparticules de métal noble ou de silice qui comprend : (1) lutilisation dune plaque de nanoparticules (2) le recouvrement des surfaces
