TL;DR: An elastomeric stamp was used to imprint gold surfaces with specific patterns of self-assembled monolayers of alkanethiols and, thereby, to create islands of defined shape and size that support extracellular matrix protein adsorption and cell attachment.

Formation of microstamped patterns on surfaces and derivative articles
Amit Kumar,George M. Whitesides +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a method of patterning a material surface is provided in which an elastomeric stamp having a stamping surface is coated with a self-assembled monolayer forming species having a functional group selected to bind to a particular material.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced CO2 fixation and biofuel production via microalgae: recent developments and future directions
Amit Kumar,Sarina J. Ergas,Xin Yuan,Ashish K. Sahu,Qiong Zhang,Jo Dewulf,F. Xavier Malcata,F. Xavier Malcata,Herman Van Langenhove +8 more
TL;DR: This review briefly examines the current technologies available for enhanced microalgal CO(2) fixation, and specifically explores the possibility of coupling wastewater treatment with micro algal growth for eventual production of biofuels and/or added-value products, with an emphasis on productivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
