Abstract
A detection system and a method for the detection of a plurality of substances is disclosed. The detection system has a plurality of detection probes, each of the detection probes having an up-conversion fluorescing core of dimensions less than 200 nm and is linked to an affinity moiety. The affinity moiety bonds to one of the plurality of substances.
Claims16
A detection system for the detection of a plurality of substances comprising:
- a plurality of detection probes, each of the detection probes having an up-conversion fluorescing core of dimensions less than 200 nm linked to an affinity moiety, the affinity moiety bonding to one of the plurality of substances.
A method for the detection of a plurality of substances comprising
- a first step of the provision of a plurality of detection probes having an up-conversion fluorescing core linked to an affinity moiety;
- a second step of placing the plurality of detection probes in contact with a fluid including the one or more substances;
- a third step of exposing the plurality of detection probes to light of a first energy;
- and
- a fourth step of detecting light of a second energy emitted from the one or more of the plurality of detector probes.
