A High-Throughput Microfluidic Platform for Mammalian Cell Transfection and Culturing

Sebastian Maerkl, Kristina Pan Woodruff

Mammalian synthetic biology could be augmented through the development of high-throughput microfluidic systems that integrate cellular transfection, culturing, and imaging. We created a microfluidic chip that cultures cells and implements 280 independent t ...

Mathematical models and computational methods for the analysis of genome-scale protein synthesis

Julien Racle

Proteins are a ubiquitous and indispensable element for every living organism, from simple bacteria to mammals. Already in the simplest organisms, there exist some thousands of different protein species that take up a great variety of structures, and thus ...

Organically modified montmorillonite and chitosan-phosphotungstic acid complex nanocomposites as high performance membranes for fuel cell applications

Mohammad Mahdi Hasani-Sadrabadi

Nanocomposite membranes based on polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) of chitosan/phosphotungstic acid (PWA) and different types of montmorillonite (MMT) were prepared as alternative membranes to Nafion for direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) applications. Fourier t ...

Rapid Synthesis of Defined Eukaryotic Promoter Libraries

Sebastian Maerkl, Arun Stephen Rajkumar

Current gene synthesis methods allow the generation of long segments of dsDNA. We show that these techniques can be used to create synthetic regulatory elements and describe a method for the creation of completely defined, synthetic variants of the PHOS pr ...
