LCD-based detection of enzymatic action
Hoogboom, Johan,Velonia, Kelly,Rasing, Theo,Rowan, Alan E.,Nolte, Roeland J. M.
, p. 434 - 435 (2006)
By incorporating an ester-containing substrate in a self-assembled alignment layer for liquid crystal cells, the presence of a lipase (CALB) can be directly detected through its enzymatic action on the alignment layer, without the need for fluorescent lab

A novel thermoresponsive snaptop for stimulated cargo release from superparamagnetic iron oxide core - mesoporous silica shell nanoparticles based on a [2 + 4] cycloreversion reaction (retro-Diels Alder reaction) is presented. The non-invasive external actuation through alternating magnetic fields makes this material a promising candidate for future applications in externally triggered drug delivery.
Studies on the attachment of DNA to silica-coated nanoparticles through a Diels-Alder reaction

A new method has been investigated for the functionalization of gold nanoparticles with DNA. Silica-coated nanoparticles functionalized with a maleimide have been prepared. These particles are designed to react with modified DNA containing a diene functionality at one end of the molecule. The result would be the formation of a more stable attachment of the DNA to the particle through a Diels-Alder reaction. This covalent attachment would not be susceptible to ligand exchanges, which are known to occur in the conventional DNA functionalization of gold nanoparticles. Copyright Taylor & Francis, Inc.
