DNA origami nanostructures are a versatile tool to arrange metal nanostructures and other
chemical entities with nanometer precision. In this way gold nanoparticle dimers with defined …

This study demonstrates the bottom‐up synthesis of silver nanolenses. A robust coating
protocol enabled the functionalization of differently sized silver nanoparticles with DNA single …

Nanolenses are self-similar chains of metal nanoparticles, which can theoretically provide
extremely high field enhancements. Yet, the complex structure renders their synthesis …

A stable and permanent integration of miniature packed bed separation columns into
microfluidic systems is a major issue in nano liquid chromatography. Various approaches like …

The in vivo effects of coating titanium implants with organic extracellular matrix molecules
were examined in the sheep tibia. Titanium screws (5.0 mm) were coated with type I collagen (…

Background signals from in situ-formed amorphous carbon, despite not being fully understood,
are known to be a common issue in few-molecule surface-enhanced Raman scattering (…

Osteohistology, the study of bone microstructure, provides an important avenue for assessing
extinct and extant vertebrate growth and life history. Cortical vascularity and collagen fibre …

Highlights • The high sensitivity and multiplexing capability of optical detection is ideal for
epigenetic analysis. • Covalent labeling is more stable than affinity-based labeling but requires …

DNA is effectively damaged by radiation, which can on the one hand lead to cancer and is
on the other hand directly exploited in the treatment of tumor tissue. DNA strand breaks are …

George Schatz opened a general discussion of the paper by Zhong-Qun Tian: The dependence
of Raman intensities with the angle of incidence and angle of scattering is an important …
