摘要:
This invention provides PEG-modified semiconductor nanoparticles of which fluorescence intensity is effectively inhibited from lowering, which are capable of forming a stable dispersion in water, and which are capable of bonding easily with biomolecules having specific recognition, as well as methods for conveniently preparing such nanoparticles, and a material for biological diagnosis. The water-soluble PEG-modified semiconductor nanoparticles of the present invention includes a structure having PEG of a number average molecular weight of 300 to 20000 having a thiol group at one end, bonded via cadmium to II–VI semiconductor nanocrystals of a core-shell structure having a ZnX (wherein X stands for O, S, Se, or Te) shell.
摘要:
A crosslinked polymer or polymer fine particles which can be obtained through copolymerization of at least a macromonomer having a polyethylene glycol segment, a comonomer having tertiary amine groups in its side chains and a crosslinking agent are provided. Said crosslinked polymer can be provided in the form of polymer nano- or micro- spheres; and also as conjugate nano- or micro-spheres with their core parts fixing or encapsulating metal or semiconductor ultrafine particles.

摘要:
This invention provides a method to detect analyte which comprises preparing fine particles which have a chargeable group in their core and a hydrophilic polymer chain in their shell; obtaining an agglutinated matter by forming a biologically specific bond between a specific residue on the surface of fine particles and analyte, and by simultaneously forming a bond by the electrostatic interaction between impure protein and said particles; and subsequently cleaving only the latter bond by raising ionic intensity. Thus, this invention provides a method to detect analyte with rapidity and high sensitivity with use of agglutination reaction.

摘要:
The present invention provides a block polymer which has functional groups on its both ends, and which comprises hydrophilic/hydrophobic segments. As for the functional groups on its both ends, the block polymer has amino group, carboxyl group or mercapto group on .alpha.-terminal, and hydroxyl group, carboxyl group, aldehyde group or vinyl group on .omega.-terminal. Hydrophilic segment comprises polyethylene oxide, while hydrophobic segment is derived from lactide, lactone or (meth)acrylic acid ester. The block polymer of this invention forms a polymeric micelle which is usable as bio-compatible materials.
摘要:
This invention provides a method to effectively incorporate inorganic fluorescent substance or inorganic contrast medium into latex polymer particles which are used for diagnostic test or the like, and also provides thus produced fluorescent substance-containing latex polymer particles which show decreased non-specific adsorption of protein or the like. Said latex polymer particles are produced by making latex-forming monomer, macromer which has at least a hydrophilic polymer segment and an inorganic fluorescent substance or an inorganic contrast medium co-existent simultaneously in an aqueous medium, and subjecting them to a polymerization reaction.
摘要:
Parenchymal cells are cultivated on cultivated endothelial cells or cultivated fibroblasts which have been separated by a surface of a specific hydrophilic polymer, and which have been patterned. A culture which contains thus formed patterned spheroids of cultivated parenchymal cells is thereby provided by this invention. This culture maintains a function which is specific to the parenchymal cells over a long period of time.
