Quantification of biological or biochemical processes are of utmost importance for medical,
biological and biotechnological applications. However, converting the biological information …

Nature achieves differentiation of specific and nonspecific binding in molecular interactions
through precise control of biomolecules in space and time. Artificial systems such as …

Sensitive and selective biosensors for high‐throughput screening are having an increasing
impact in modern medical care. The establishment of robust protein biosensing platforms …

The adsorption kinetics of three model proteins—human serum albumin, fibrinogen and
hemoglobin—has been measured and compared using three different experimental techniques: …

The mechanical mismatch between soft neural tissues and stiff neural implants hinders the
long-term performance of implantable neuroprostheses. Here, we designed and fabricated …

The generation of surfaces and interfaces that are able to withstand protein adsorption is a
major challenge in the design of blood-contacting materials for both medical implants and …

The structure of the adsorbing layers of native and denatured proteins (fibrinogen, γ-immunoglobulin,
albumin, and lysozyme) was studied on hydrophilic TiO 2 and hydrophobic Teflon-…

By incorporating a grating in a planar optical waveguide one creates a device with which
the spectrum of guided lightmodes can be measured. When the surface of the waveguide is …

Globalized infectious diseases are causing species declines worldwide, but their source often
remains elusive. We used whole-genome sequencing to solve the spatiotemporal origins …

In the present study, we have utilized X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), spectroscopic
ellipsometry (ELM), and optical waveguide lightmode spectroscopy (OWLS) to examine the …
