Journal ArticleDOI
Camouflage and Display for Soft Machines
Stephen A. Morin,Robert F. Shepherd,Sen Wai Kwok,Adam A. Stokes,Alex Nemiroski,George M. Whitesides,George M. Whitesides +6 more
TL;DR: This manuscript describes simple microfluidic networks that can change the color, contrast, pattern, apparent shape, luminescence, and surface temperature of soft machines for camouflage and display that can be changed simultaneously in the visible and infrared.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patterned deposition of cells and proteins onto surfaces by using three-dimensional microfluidic systems
Daniel T. Chiu,Noo Li Jeon,Sui Huang,Ravi S. Kane,Christopher J. Wargo,Insung S. Choi,Donald E. Ingber,George M. Whitesides +7 more
TL;DR: Three-dimensional microfluidic systems were fabricated and used to pattern proteins and mammalian cells on a planar substrate to pattern multiple types of proteins and cells in complex, discontinuous structures on a surface.
Journal ArticleDOI
The controlled formation of ordered, sinusoidal structures by plasma oxidation of an elastomeric polymer
TL;DR: In this paper, a technique for generating waves on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) patterned in bas-relief is described, where the PDMS is heated and its surface oxidized in an oxygen plasma; this oxidation forms a thin, stiff silicate layer on the surface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-assembled monolayers of n-alkanethiolates on copper are barrier films that protect the metal against oxidation by air
TL;DR: In this paper, self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) derived from adsorption of nalkanethiols onto the surfaces of copper slow the oxidation of the copper surface by reaction with atmospheric dioxygen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbonic Anhydrase as a Model for Biophysical and Physical-Organic Studies of Proteins and Protein–Ligand Binding
Vijay M. Krishnamurthy,George K. Kaufman,Adam R. Urbach,Irina Gitlin,Katherine L. Gudiksen,Douglas B. Weibel,George M. Whitesides +6 more
TL;DR: Carbonic anhydrase is a protein that is especially well-suited to serve as a model in many types of studies in biophysics, bioanalysis, the physical-organic chemistry of inhibitor design, and medicinal chemistry.
