Optical Fiber-based Nanobiosensors for Early Prostate Cancer Diagnosis (NanoEye)
Start date: Sep 13, 2010, End date: Sep 12, 2012 PROJECT  FINISHED 

This project intends to construct novel nanosized optical fiber-based biosensors which could be applied to detect and monitor the existing telomerase in nucleus of single living cells without significantly altering and/or destructing single cell’s intracellular architecture and physiological function. By studying the level of telomerase in single living cells, early-stage cancer could be detected and diagnosed. This project further aims to develop novel strategies for silver coating and biomolecules immobilisation on optical fiber-based nanoprobes.
