Mitochondrial dysfunction and elevated reactive oxygen species are strongly implicated in both aging and various neurodegenerative disorders, including Huntington disease (HD). Because reactive oxygen species can promote the selective oxidation of protein cysteine sulfhydryl groups to disulfide bonds we examined

We describe the creation of CdSe/ZnS quantum dot assemblies using layer-by-layer construction strategies, using self-assembly. In the first approach, a dithiol linker was used to make multilayers of CdSe/ZnS quantum dots, while in the second biotin- and streptavidin-conjugated CdSe/ZnS quantum
