Ceramic Capillaries for Use in Microarray Fabrication

Ceramic capillaries for use in microarray fabrication.

We have used ceramic capillary tips generally used in the microelectronics industry for the production of DNA microarrays. The ceramic tips improve the morphology of microarray elements, allow higher element density, and increase printing tip life over the customary slotted stainless-steel pins. Ceramic tips are less expensive than steel pins and allow printing from 1536-well sample source plat...

Elastin-calmodulin scaffold for protein microarray fabrication.

In this work, we report a new method to reversibly immobilize proteins to a surface in a functionally active orientation directly from cell lysate by employing a fusion protein consisting of a thermal-responsive elastin (ELP) domain as the surface anchor and a calcium-responsive calmodulin (CalM) domain for protein capturing. Incorporation of an M13 tag into recombinant proteins enables not onl...

Nanoparticles Transport in Ceramic Matriсes: A Novel Approach for Ceramic Matrix Composites Fabrication

The results of practical implementation of a new method for porous piezoceramics, and ceramic matrix piezocomposites fabrication were presented. The method was based on nanoparticles transport in ceramic matrices using a polymer nanogranules coated or filled with a various chemicals, with successive porous ceramics fabrication processes. Different types of polymer microgranules filled and coate...
