Journal ArticleDOI

Paper-based potentiometric sensing of free bilirubin in blood serum.

TL;DR: The components of the potentiometric bilirubin sensor were embedded in a paper-based device to provide a sensor that is disposable and easy to use, and thus is suitable for applications at the point-of-care.
Journal ArticleDOI

Disulfide-Based Diblock Copolymer Worm Gels: A Wholly-Synthetic Thermoreversible 3D Matrix for Sheet-Based Cultures

TL;DR: This new approach enables cells to be embedded within micrometer-thick slabs of gel with good viability, permits cell culture for at least 12 days, and facilitates recovery of viable cells from the gel simply by incubating the culture in buffer at 4 °C, avoiding the enzymatic degradation required for cell harvesting when using commercial protein-based gels, such as Matrigel.
Journal ArticleDOI

Filter-Based Assay for Escherichia coli in Aqueous Samples Using Bacteriophage-Based Amplification

TL;DR: A phage-based amplification scheme with an M13KE phage that delivers a small peptide motif to an F(+), α-complementing strain of Escherichia coli K12, which expresses the ω-domain of β-galactosidase (β-gal).

Self-assembling peptide surfaces for cell patterning and interactions

TL;DR: In this paper, a self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) manufactured by imprinting reactive peptides onto solid supports is described, and methods of preparing and using these improved SAMs are discussed.
