Lithography technique patterns cells and proteins

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Hank Hogan

By taking a cue from nature, a group of researchers has developed an inexpensive and robust technique that can pattern proteins and cells into ordered arrays on various substrates. Such arrays could be used in materials science, in synthetic chemistry, and in biology and synthetic biology as well as in medicine. Research team leader Jane P. Bearinger already has some potential applications in mind. “My initial goals for the work are in tissue engineering and proteomic or genomic arrays towards systems biology work.” Using a patterned transparent mask coated with a photosensitizer,...Read full article
