TL;DR: Infrared spectroscopy was applied to investigate the well-known EDC/NHS activation details of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and poly(methacrylic Acid) (PMAA) brushes grafted on porous silicon and revealed that the infrared spectral details revealed the opposite of the expected NHS-ester was generated under the optimum reaction conditions.

TL;DR: Thousands of nucleotide(nt)-long single strand DNAs, generated from rolling-circle-amplification (RCA), were used as scaffolds to create DNA nanoscale wires and plates with a few short staple strands by following the origami design principle.

TL;DR: Both RCA and polymer brushes have been taken to increase the loading quantity of target molecules and thus improve the detection sensitivity without loss of multiplexing, and a two-colour DNA microarray was achieved via RCA of two kinds of circular DNA targets on one chip simultaneously.

TL;DR: In this article, a general approach to endow gold nanoshells a new function of controlled release was established by coating stimulus-responsive polymers on their surfaces via surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization.

TL;DR: In this paper, a facile approach was established to construct polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrons from polymer brushes of poly(poly(ethylene glycol) monomethacrylate) (Si-g-P(PEGMA-OH)) grafted from a planar silicon hydride surface.
