Tunable coverage of immobilized biomolecules for biofunctional interface design.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The controlled coverage of immobilized biomolecules is introduced, illustrating a concept for designing biomaterial surfaces such that the extent of manipulation employed to elicit biological responses is controlled according to density changes in the underlying chemical motifs and the density of immobilized biomolecules.

Catalytic biofunctional membranes containing site-specifically immobilized enzyme arrays: a review
Biofunctional membranes normally involve the random immobilization of biomolecules to porous, polymeric membranes, often through the numerous lysine residues on the protein. In this process, bioactivity is significantly decreased largely due to different orientations of the biomolecule with respect to the membrane or to multiple point attachment. To circumvent this difficulty, while still takin...
متن کاملSelf-Assembly in Biosilicification and Biotemplated Silica Materials
During evolution, living organisms have learned to design biomolecules exhibiting self-assembly properties to build-up materials with complex organizations. This is particularly evidenced by the delicate siliceous structures of diatoms and sponges. These structures have been considered as inspiration sources for the preparation of nanoscale and nanostructured silica-based materials templated by...
متن کاملSurface immobilization and bioactivity of TGF-β1 inhibitor peptides for bone implant applications.
TGF-β1 is the most related cytokine with the production of fibrotic tissue. It plays an important role on the production of collagen by fibroblasts and other types of cells. The inhibition of this cytokine reduces fibrosis in various types of tissue. Biofunctionalization of dental and orthopedic implants with biomolecules enables modification of the physical, chemical and biochemical properties...
متن کاملCharacterization of protein immobilization on nanoporous gold using atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy.
Nanoporous gold (NPG), made by dealloying low carat gold alloys, is a relatively new nanomaterial finding application in catalysis, sensing, and as a support for biomolecules. NPG has attracted considerable interest due to its open bicontinuous structure, high surface-to-volume ratio, tunable porosity, chemical stability and biocompatibility. NPG also has the attractive feature of being able to...
متن کاملDesign of Direct Exponential Observers for Fault Detection of Nonlinear MEMS Tunable Capacitor
In this paper a novel method is proposed for construction of an exponential observer for nonlinear system. The presented method is based on direct solution of dynamic error without any linearzing of nonlinear terms. Necessary and sufficient conditions for construction of direct observer are presented. Stability of the observer is checked using Lyapunov theorem. Also the ability of this observer...
