Microarrays are widely used for detecting target analytes and biomarkers, with fabrication methods ranging from non-contact to contact bioprinting techniques. Microcontact bioprinting (μCP), which utilizes elastomeric stamps to transfer biorecognition molecules (bioinks) onto substrates, offers advantages such as…

Large-scale de novo nucleic acid synthesis is a powerful tool enabling researchers to better understand and engineer biological systems. Fields ranging from genomics to nucleic acid therapeutics to synthetic biology make use of high-throughput experimental approaches requiring access to large pools or libraries of DNA…

Protein arrays are systematically arranged, large collections of annotated proteins on planar surfaces commonly used for the characterisation of protein binding events against a wide range of possible probes. These may include analyses of protein-protein, peptide-protein, enzyme-substrate or antibody-antigen…

With both foodborne illness and food spoilage detrimentally impacting human health and the economy, there is growing interest in the development of in situ sensors that offer real-time monitoring of food quality within enclosed food packages. While oligonucleotide-based fluorescent sensors have illustrated significant…

Biosensing or diagnostics using glycan sequences as targets is limited by glycan cross-reactivities. As binding sites of different proteins that all recognise a given glycan will not be identical, we introduce application of a library of synthetic analogues of a single glycan ligand as a powerful approach to obtain…

The capacity to pattern biomolecules within microfluidic devices expands the scope of microfluidic technologies. In such patterned systems, surface-bound components remained localized, while the microfluidic network supplies reagents and removes waste products. This approach has enabled continuous protein expression…

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) play a vital role in biotechnology, medicine, and diagnostics due to their unique optical properties. Their conjugation with antibodies, antigens, proteins, or nucleic acids enables precise targeting and enhances biosensing capabilities. Functionalized AuNPs, however, may experience reduced…

Biomarkers detection have become essential in medical diagnostics and early detection of life-threatening diseases. Modern-day medicine relies heavily on painful and invasive tests, the extraction of large volumes of venous blood being the most common tool of biomarker detection. These tests are time-consuming…

Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are point-of-care devices known for their affordability, speed, and simplicity. However, their sensitivity is often limited due to the need for fast associative rates between assay components. This work presents a strategy towards reducing the demand for fast test line associative kinetics…

Understanding how plants respond to dynamic and spatially variable stimuli is a key goal in plant sciences. Traditional imaging methods often involve a trade-off between environmental control and spatial resolution, limiting their ability to capture real-time responses in high resolution. Microfluidic technology…
