W620: Mechanical Testing

Xunzhi from the Shestopalov lab gave us a brief presentation on how XPS is used to assess surface modification of the nanoporous nitiride silicon (NPN) membrane chip.   Power Point Presentation: surface assessment via XPS

ASAIO /əˈsī ō/ noun American Society of Artificial Internal Organs. There is an associated Journal, “ASAIO Journal”, and a yearly conference for the presentation and discussion of research relating to advances in medical device technology. While the initial focus of the society was on renal devices, the artificial kidney, currently the majority of work by…

Intro: Hi all, as we investigate the formation of HUVEC focal adhesions on porous SiO2 membrane , we also looked at fibronectin fibriollogenesis. Interestingly, it appears that after 24 hr (since the initial seeding), the fibronectin fibrils formed by HUVEC vary depending on the pore characteristics of the SiO2 membrane. In this case, we looked at…

As you may already know, we are writing a review article for the Electrophoresis journal on nanofabrication methods. This post is to request your feedback on the figures included in the manuscript. The main objective of figure 1 is to compare top-down and bottom-up processes to justify the use of the methods reviewed in the…
