Synthesis and Surface Modification of Nanostructured F-Doped ZnO: Toward a Transducer for Label-Free Optical Biosensing

In this work, the surface of nanostructured fluorine-doped ZnO (nZnO·F) is functionalized with protein A (PrA), and used as a model biomolecule. The chemical procedure is characterized by several analytical techniques such as Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, water contact angle anal...
