Title: | In-fiber photo-immobilization of a bioactive surface | Authors: | Lee, Elizabeth Yong, Derrick Yu, Xia Li, Hao Chan, Chi Chiu |
Keywords: | DRNTU::Science::Medicine::Biomedical engineering | Issue Date: | 2014 | Source: | Lee, E., Yong, D., Yu, X., Li, H., & Chan, C. C. (2014). In-fiber photo-immobilization of a bioactive surface. Journal of biomedical optics, 19(12). | Series/Report no.: | Journal of biomedical optics | Abstract: | We demonstrate the first in-fiber light-induced bioactive biotin-functionalization via photobleaching fluorophore-conjugated biotin. Photobleaching the fluorophores generated free radicals that bind to the albumin-passivated inner surface of pure silica photonic crystal fiber. The subsequent attachment of dye-conjugated streptavidin to the bound biotin qualified the photo-immobilization process and demonstrated a potential for the construction of in-fiber macromolecular assemblies or multiplexes. Compared with other in-fiber bioactive coating methods, the proposed light-induced technique requires only a low-power light source, without the need for additional preactivation steps or toxic chemical reagents. This method, hence, enables a simple and compact implementation for potential biomedical applications. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/106937 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/25135 |
