The interactions of proteins and polyelectrolytes lead to diverse applications in separations,
delivery and wound repair, and are thus of interest to scientists in eg (a) glycobiology,(b) …

In this paper we review some metasurfaces with negative values of effective refractive index,
as scaffolds for a new generation of surface plasmon polariton-based biological or chemical …

Almost all immuno-biosensors are inherently limited by the quality of antibodies available for
the target molecule, and obtaining a highly sensitive antibody for a given target molecule is …

Biofilms form an irregular network matrix that is surrounded by extracellular polymeric
substrate (EPS). The architecture of biofilm plays an important role in protecting bacteria …

The ability to control the properties of bio-inspired liquid-infused surfaces is of interest in a
wide range of applications. Liquid layers created using oil-infused polydimethylsiloxane …

Capillary pumping is an attractive means of liquid actuation because it is a passive
mechanism, ie, it does not rely on an external energy supply during operation. The capillary …

This paper presents a technique for patterning arrays of microbial biofilms on a wide range
of different substrates using thin polymer stencils. The stencils function as “scaffolds” that …

Polyelectrolyte layer-by-layer (LbL) nanofilms are interesting polymeric structures, built by
alternating adsorption of positively and negatively charged polyelectrolytes. They consist of …

Using a patterned superhydrophobicity/superhydrophilicity template, micropatterned
octacalcium phosphate (OCP) has been successfully fabricated on TiO2 nanotube array …

Protein adsorption onto polymer surfaces is a very complex, ubiquitous, and integrated
process, impacting essential areas of food processing and packaging, health devices …
