## Abstract

The dynamic monitoring of biomolecules that are part of cell membranes generally constitutes a challenge. Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor assemblies provide clear advantages concerning microscopic imaging. Therefore, this paper proposes and analyzes a quantum dots-based biosensor assembly. Thus, particular attention is granted to biomolecules that are part of cell membranes. Additionally, this paper describes and analyzes a quantum dots-based biosensor assembly, which is used to implement a fully functional color ECL visualization system that allows for cellular and biomolecular structures to be accurately visualized. The related nano-emitter allows the implementation of real-time bioimaging scenarios. Consequently, the proposed approach is thoroughly evaluated relative to the time-dependent evolution of biomolecules. It has been demonstrated that traditionally problematic structures, like the biomolecules that are part of cell membranes, can be studied and monitored relative to their time-dependent dynamic evolution using the proposed solution. The reported research process has been conducted in the realm of cooperation with a specialized biomedical engineering company, and the described results are expected to substantially support a better understanding of the biomolecules’ time-dependent dynamic evolution.
