Hot Article: Patterning of proteins into nanostripes on Si-wafer over large areas: a combination of Langmuir–Blodgett patterning and orthogonal surface chemistry

A simple approach to selectively immobilize proteins on patterned silicon wafers has been developed by a team of scientists led by Lifeng Chi and Armido Studer. 

Graphical abstract: Patterning of proteins into nanostripes on Si-wafer over large areas: a combination of Langmuir–Blodgett patterning and orthogonal surface chemistry

The team from Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster, Germany, created nanostripe patterns of proteins over large areas on Si-wafers uing Langmuir–Blodgett patterning and subsequent orthogonal surface chemistry.
