Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Polymer ResearchTest strips for on-site analysis
In our explanatory video we show you possible applications of quantum dots and polymer nanoparticles for diagnostic tests - just have a look! (Language in video - german)
Can we make the invisible visible? Luminous particles bound to detection molecules make it possible to make even small analytical traces visible. Once it is determined what to look for, specific test strips can be developed depending on the application, whether for diagnostics or food analysis. Due to the properties of the luminescent particles, the analyses are highly sensitive and respond to even the smallest traces. Different colors allow the determination of several substances in one test.
