Submicron machining and biomolecule immobilization on porous silicon by electron beam
نویسندگان
چکیده
Three-dimensional submicrometric structures and biomolecular patterns have been fabricated on a porous silicon film by an electron beam-based functionalization method. The immobilized proteins act as a passivation layer against material corrosion in aqueous solutions. The effects' dependence on the main parameters of the process (i.e., the electron beam dose, the biomolecule concentration, and the incubation time) has been demonstrated.

متن کاملCatalytic 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...
