Controlling matter at the nanoscale holds a lot of promise in nanotechnology. The DNA origami is promising if used as a template to design and arrange matter at the nanoscale. We have used the DNA origami approach to engineer staple strands at selected sites for attachment of gold nanoparticles. The covalent attachment of thiol-modified DNA oligomers was used to functionalize gold nanoparticles. These oligomers then hybridize with complementary strands extended on selected staple strands on the DNA origami surface with nanometer precision. Gold nanoparticles of 5 nm diameter were arranged across a DNA origami tube to form a C-shape which has potential use in electronics and plasmonics. Agarose gel electrophoresis, AFM, UV-Vis spectroscopy and TEM were used to characterize the structure.

Background: The detectors of both computed radiography (CR) and direct digital radiography (DR) have a wide dynamic range that could tolerate high values of exposure factors without an adverse effect on image quality. Therefore, this study aims to assess patient radiation dose and proposes institutional diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) for two teaching hospitals in Ghana. Materials and Methods: CR and DR systems were utilized in this study from two teaching hospitals. The CR system was manufactured by Philips Medical Systems DMC GmbH, while the DR system was manufactured by General Electric. The entrance skin doses (ESDs) were calculated using the standard equation and the tube output measurements. Free-in-air kerma (μGy) was measured using a calibrated radiation dosimeter. The proposed institutional DRLs were estimated using 75th percentiles values of the estimated ESDs for nine radiographic projections. Results and Discussion: The calculated DRLs were 0.4, 1.6, 3.4, 0.5, 0.4, 1.1, 1.0, 1.2, and 1.7 mGy for chest posteroanterior (PA), lumbar spine anteroposterior (AP), lumbar spine lateral (LAT), cervical spine AP, cervical spine LAT, skull PA, pelvis AP, and abdomen AP, respectively in CR system. In the DR system, the values were 0.3, 1.6, 3.1, 0.4, 0.3, 0.7, 0.6, 0.9, and 1.3 for chest PA, lumbar spine AP, lumbar spine LAT, cervical spine AP, cervical spine LAT, skull PA, pelvis AP, and abdomen AP, respectively. Conclusion: Institutional DRLs in nine radiographic projections have been proposed for two teaching hospitals in Ghana for the first time. The proposed DRLs will serve as baseline data for establishing local DRLs in the hospitals and will be a valuable tool in optimizing patient doses.
