Indirect DPN Patterning of Proteins and Peptide Nanoarrays

This family of applications describes the patterning of proteins and peptides at nanoscale dimensions. Arrays of these proteins are built utilizing an indirect method of patterning template molecules onto surfaces and by immobilizing proteins or peptides on those templates. Coverage is broad, covering many different types including antibodies.

DPN Patterning of Nucleic Acids

This family of applications describes the use of the DPN process to pattern nucleic acid compounds, including DNA. It details the preparations, solutions, and environmental conditions used to produce DNA patterns, and it also describes the use of arrays of such patterns to support hybridization experiments. Hybridization of patterned DNA was demonstrated.
