Antigoni Alexandrou is the research director at CNRS Laboratoire d’Optique et Biosciences, Ecole Polytechnique, CNRS, INSERM Palaiseau, FRANCE. Talks about Nanoparticles which used nowadays in increasingly diverse applications i) for fundamental multiscale studies to measure, visualize, and understand how cells, tissues, and organisms function ii) for direct biomedical applications in in vitro diagnostics and nanomedicine. Highlighting research on the cell membrane organization using nanoparticles as single-molecule labels and on time- and space-resolved observation of signal transmission activity in cells and inflammation processes in small animals exploiting nanosensors with unique properties. Furthermore review recent developments in ultrasensitive detection of disease indicators (biomarkers) in blood samples with luminescent nanoprobes, nanocarriers for drug delivery, and nanoparticle-based enhancers of cancer treatment with X-ray radiation, talks Next-generation in vitro diagnostics, taking immunoassays to the next level, functionalizing Luminescent nanoparticles, easily integrating proprietary nanoparticle probes into assays and increase the sensitivity up to 1000 times, High Performance, Improves the sensitivity of tests by orders or magnitude. Lumedix is a startup developing functionalized luminescent nanoparticles for bioanalytical and in vitro diagnostic applications, the proprietary nanoparticles used provide users with the capacity to radically increase immunoassay sensitivity.
