Abstract

Provided are methods for purifying functionalized fluorescent nanocrystals having affinity ligand operably bound thereto by using a solid support matrix in a reactor through which solutions are circulated, and by using an immobilized solid phase formed by operably binding functionalized fluorescent nanocrystals to the solid support matrix. Also provided are purified functionalized fluorescent nanocrystals having affinity ligand operably bound thereto which are purified using the methods according to the present invention to be substantially free of free affinity ligand.
