Magnetic-Plasmonic Hybrid Nanobeads Designed for Imaging and Isolation of Cellular Organelles

Magnetic-plasmonic nanoparticles offer the combined benefits of both a magnetic probe as well as additional imaging modes usually associated with noble metal nanoparticles. Professor Shinya Maenosono (Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology) explores the synthesis, characterization, and proof-of-concept application of Ag/FeCo/Ag core/shell/shell magnetic-plasmonic nanobeads for imaging and isolation of cellular organelles (autophagosomes of COS-1 cells).

Layer-by-Layer (LbL) Assembly, A "Gentle Yet Flexible" Method Toward Functional Biomaterials

Recently, layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly has emerged as a versatile, gentle and, simple method for immobilization of functional molecules in an easily controllable thin film morphology.1,2 In this short review, we introduce recent advances in functional systems fabricated by using the mild, yet adaptable LbL technique.

Polyelectrolyte Multilayer Films and Membrane Functionalization
