Procedure of experiments for chemical modification of nanodiamonds resulting in carboxylated, aminated and hydroxylated particles.These activities were the basis for biological nanodiamondfunctionalization.

These tasks belong to the project »Nanodiamond- and Magnetic Bead-Aptamer-Conjugates for Detecting Noroviruses«

Tasks: Sergio Abud


The goal of this subproject is to modify the surface properties of nano-diamonds in chemically and biotechnologically relevant ways. These particles will serve as binding points for biomolecules (DNA), thus providing a highly specific sensor surface.
