Journal ArticleDOI
Single virus particle mass detection using microresonators with nanoscale thickness
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used arrays of silicon cantilever beams as microresonator sensors with nanoscale thickness to detect the mass of individual virus particles and demonstrated the detection of a single vaccinia virus particle with an average mass of 9.5 fg.
Journal ArticleDOI
A cellular trojan horse for delivery of therapeutic nanoparticles into tumors
MiRan Choi,Katie J. Stanton-Maxey,Jennifer K Stanley,Carly S. Levin,Rizia Bardhan,Demir Akin,Sunil Badve,Jennifer Sturgis,J. Paul Robinson,Rashid Bashir,Naomi J. Halas,Susan E. Clare +11 more
TL;DR: The demonstration of several key steps toward this therapeutic strategy: phagocytosis of Au nanoshells, and photoinduced cell death of monocytes/macrophages as isolates and within tumor spheroids are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solid-state nanopore channels with DNA selectivity
TL;DR: Solid-state nanopore channels that are selective towards single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) are reported, providing a tool to gain fundamental insight into the channel-molecule interactions and the conceptual framework of diffusive molecular transport with particle-channel interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacteria-mediated delivery of nanoparticles and cargo into cells
Demir Akin,Jennifer Sturgis,Kathy Ragheb,Debby Sherman,Kristin M. Burkholder,J. Paul Robinson,Arun K. Bhunia,Sulma I. Mohammed,Rashid Bashir +8 more
TL;DR: The simultaneous use of nanoparticles and bacteria to deliver DNA-based model drug molecules in vivo and in vitro and this new approach may be used to deliver different types of cargo into live animals and a variety of cells in culture without the need for complicated genetic manipulations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anomalous resonance in a nanomechanical biosensor
Amit Gupta,Pradeep R. Nair,Demir Akin,Michael R. Ladisch,Steve Broyles,Muhammad A. Alam,Rashid Bashir +6 more
TL;DR: This work demonstrates theoretically and experimentally that the direction of the frequency change arises from a size-specific modification of diffusion and attachment kinetics of biomolecules on the cantilevers, and may have broad impact on microscale and nanoscale biosensor design.
