  4. 3. Development of a quantum dot based strategy for Gram-specific bacteria differentiation

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknik och hälsa (STH)

    Author : Ann-Lena Jahnsen; [2016]
    Keywords : Nanoparticles; Quantum dots; Bioconjugation; Diagnostics; Gram-specific; Bacteria detection;

    Abstract : Abstract Time-consuming diagnosis of bacterial blood stream infections and inappropriate antibiotic therapy have critical implications for patient outcome – with mortality figures rising for every hour of delayed treatment. The development of diagnostic methods that are capable of selective and rapid bacteria detection, and do not rely on preliminary blood culturing and Gram-staining procedures, is imperative in providing effective therapy and preventing multi-resistance.
