Characterization Techniques Common to DNA Nanotechnology Matthew Mancuso BEE 7600, Professor Dan Luo Department of Biomedical Engineering, Cornell University Presented Thursday February 10 rd, 2011 “Measure what is measurable, and make measurable what is not so.” --Galileo Galilei Photo 51, x-ray scattering data produced by Rosalind Franklin which prompted the discovery of the double helix, taken in 1952

Before We Get Started… Imaging is Characterization too! Bigger machines aren’t always better… But they certainly don’t hurt

What is Characterization? Traditional Biotech Traditional Biotech Characterization [is] the use of external techniques to probe into the internal structure and properties of a material. --Wikipedia, Light Scattering Techniques Light Scattering Techniques Hot out of the Lab: Pacific Biosciences! Gel Electrophoresis Gel Electrophoresis Polymerase Chain Reaction Polymerase Chain Reaction Forster Resonance Energy Transfer Forster Resonance Energy Transfer Dynamic Light Scattering Dynamic Light Scattering X-Ray Scattering X-Ray Scattering Fluorescence Techniques Fluorescence Techniques Fluorescence Spectroscopy Fluorescence Spectroscopy
