单个纳米颗粒的光散射检测技术进展

纳米颗粒因其在生物医学和生物分析领域具有重要的应用前景而备受关注.单个纳米颗粒的光散射检测技术是一种简单、有效地对纳米颗粒的尺寸、尺寸分布及浓度等进行表征的分析方法,尤其在揭露纳米颗粒的内在异质性方面具有独特优势.然而瑞利散射强度随粒径减小呈六次方衰减,使得小尺寸单个纳米颗粒的检测非常具有挑战性.本文对近年发展起来的多种单个纳米颗粒的光散射检测技术进行综述

戊型肝炎病毒中和性单克隆抗体的鉴定

阻断实验发现,用戊型肝炎病毒(HEV)衣壳蛋白重组抗原制备的8株抗HEV单克隆抗体(mAb),分别识别3个构象表位和2个线性表位。用抗体捕获反转录PCR方法证实,其中识别2个构象表位的3个mAb可以直接捕获HEV颗粒,表明这2个表位位于HEV颗粒的外表面。识别这两个表位的mAb8C11和8H3均可中和HEV对恒河猴的致病性和感染性。mAb8C11缩短排毒时间的效应较明显,而mAb8H3延迟机体抗HEV抗体阳转时间的效应较明显。二者的中和效应具有较明显的协同作用。中和单抗8C11、8H3对戊肝不同感染时期的血清均有显著阻断作用,Fab片段的阻断作用与完整抗体类似,表明这两个mAb对应的中和表位是HEV体液免疫应答的优势表位

Development of a Single-molecule Flow Analyzer

A single-molecule flow analyzer based on laser induced fluorescence and hydrodynamic focusing was developed in our lab. There were three key aspects of this design for achieving single molecule detection sensitivity: (1) a detector with a high photon-detection efficiency(>65% for avalanche photo-diode detector); (2) a small probe volume obtained by sheath-protected, hydrodynamically focused sample stream to reduce background; and (3) a slow flow to provide extended dwell time(milliseconds) in the probe volume so that more fluorescence cycling can occur. The single molecule detection sensitivity was demonstrated by the successful detection of single phycoerythrin molecules. The house-constructed single-molecule flow analyzer was applied to DNA fragment sizing with linear correlation between DNA fragment length and mean burst size.国家自然科学基金(批准号:20645001,20675070);; 福建省科技厅科研基金(批准号:2005NZ1013);; 教育部留学回国人员科研启动基金;; 2006年度福建省新世纪优秀人才支持计划;; 2007年度教育部新世纪优秀人才支持计划基金资

JUNO Sensitivity on Proton Decay p→νˉK+p\to \bar\nu K^+ Searches

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a large liquid scintillator detector designed to explore many topics in fundamental physics. In this paper, the potential on searching for proton decay in $p\to \bar\nu K^+$ mode with JUNO is investigated.The kaon and its decay particles feature a clear three-fold coincidence signature that results in a high efficiency for identification. Moreover, the excellent energy resolution of JUNO permits to suppress the sizable background caused by other delayed signals. Based on these advantages, the detection efficiency for the proton decay via $p\to \bar\nu K^+$ is 36.9% with a background level of 0.2 events after 10 years of data taking. The estimated sensitivity based on 200 kton-years exposure is $9.6 \times 10^{33}$ years, competitive with the current best limits on the proton lifetime in this channel

JUNO sensitivity on proton decay p → ν K + searches*

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a large liquid scintillator detector designed to explore many topics in fundamental physics. In this study, the potential of searching for proton decay in the $p\to \bar{\nu} K^+$ mode with JUNO is investigated. The kaon and its decay particles feature a clear three-fold coincidence signature that results in a high efficiency for identification. Moreover, the excellent energy resolution of JUNO permits suppression of the sizable background caused by other delayed signals. Based on these advantages, the detection efficiency for the proton decay via $p\to \bar{\nu} K^+$ is 36.9% ± 4.9% with a background level of $0.2\pm 0.05({\rm syst})\pm$$0.2({\rm stat})$ events after 10 years of data collection. The estimated sensitivity based on 200 kton-years of exposure is $9.6 \times 10^{33}$ years, which is competitive with the current best limits on the proton lifetime in this channel and complements the use of different detection technologies
