Lateral Flow and Flow-through Bioassay Devices Based on Patterned Porous Media, Methods of Making Same, and Methods of Using Same
George M. Whitesides,Scott T. Phillips,Andres W. Martinez,Manish J. Butte,Amy P. Wong,Samuel W. Thomas,Hayat Sindi,Sarah J. Vella,Emanuel Carrilho,Katherine A. Mirica,Yanyan Liu +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide lateral flow and flow-through bioassay devices based on patterned porous media, methods of making same, and methods of using same, which include a porous, hydrophilic medium; a fluid impervious barrier comprising polymerized photoresist.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using soft lithography to fabricate GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure field effect transistors
Junmin Hu,R. G. Beck,Tao Deng,Robert M. Westervelt,K. D. Maranowski,Arthur C. Gossard,George M. Whitesides +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the fabrication of functional GaAs/AlGaAs field effect transistors using micromolding in capillaries, a representative soft lithographic technique.
Journal ArticleDOI
The paradoxical thermodynamic basis for the interaction of ethylene glycol, glycine, and sarcosine chains with bovine carbonic anhydrase II: an unexpected manifestation of enthalpy/entropy compensation.
TL;DR: This study demonstrates a surprising example of enthalpy/entropy compensation in a well-defined system and proposes a model based on decreasing "tightness" of the protein-ligand interface as the chain length of the ligand increases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymerization-based signal amplification for paper-based immunoassays
Abraham K. Badu-Tawiah,Shefali Lathwal,Kaja Kaastrup,Mohammad H. Al-Sayah,Mohammad H. Al-Sayah,Dionysios C. Christodouleas,Barbara S. Smith,George M. Whitesides,Hadley D. Sikes +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a colorimetric method that integrates a paper-based immunoassay with a rapid, visible-light-induced polymerization to provide high visual contrast between a positive and a negative result is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using Two-Stage Chemical Amplification To Determine the Density of Defects in Self-Assembled Monolayers of Alkanethiolates on Gold
TL;DR: In this paper, the surface density of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of hexadecanethiolates on gold that lead to etching of the gold when the system is etched with aqueous ferricyanide solution is measured.
