Harnessing the ability to precisely and reproducibly actuate fluids and manipulate
bioparticles such as DNA, cells, and molecules at the microscale, microfluidics is a powerful …

This Review summarizes methods for constructing systems and structures at micron or
submicron scales that have applications in microbiology. These tools make it possible to …

Publisher Summary The chapter discusses various techniques and applications of scanning
electrochemical microscopy (SECM), one of the scanning probe microscopies (SPM) in …

Microarray technologies provide powerful tools for biomedical researchers and medicine,
since arrays can be configured to monitor the presence of molecular signatures in a highly …

Scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) is a powerful surface characterisation
technique that allows for the electrochemical profiling of surfaces with sub micrometer …

Pore-forming proteins (PFPs) are a broad class of molecules that comprise various families,
structural folds, and assembly pathways. In nature, PFPs are most often deployed by their …

Electrochemical monitoring of cellular signal transduction under three-dimensional (3-D) cell
culture conditions has been demonstrated by combining cell-based microarrays with a …

A novel microfluidic device with an array of analytical chambers was developed in order to
perform single-cell-based gene-function analysis. A series of analytical processes was …

We report on the growth of uniquely shaped ZnO nanowires with high surface area and
patterned over large areas by using a poly (dimethylsiloxane)(PDMS) microfluidic channel …

The cytosol of a single adherent cell was collected by the electrical cell lysis method with a
Pt-ring capillary probe, and the cellular messenger RNA (mRNA) was analyzed at a single …
