Dithiocarbamate Ligands with Biosensing Applications

Summary

Purdue University researchers have developed an innovative method for coating metal surfaces with dithiocarbamate (DTC) ligands. DTC ligands can absorb onto metal surfaces with the same degree of generality as thiols, but with greater resistance to surface desorption or displacement. DTC ligands can be formed under extremely mild conditions and are especially useful for robust functionalization of metal substrates and nanoparticles intended for biological labeling and biosensing applications.

Technology Benefits
