Advances in Microfluidic Impedance Cytometry for Electromechanical Characterization of Cells
Single-cell analysis is extremely important for discovering unique characteristics of individual cells, identifying cell populations of interest, and understanding their behaviour during disease conditions. With the advent ... -
Caenorhabditis elegans-Bacteria interactions: Neuronal Regulation of Innate Immune Responses
The survival of an organism depends on its ability to sense threats and execute appropriate defense mechanisms. C. elegans is a soil-dwelling nematode that feeds on bacteria in rotting vegetation. The nematode has few ... -
Fabrication and Characterization of Optomechanical Devices
Silicon photonics is a promising platform for photonic devices and circuits, largely driven by advanced complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) processing technology. An extremely crucial component for a photonic ... -
Molecular Dynamics Investigations of Hybrid Nanopores for Single Molecule DNA Sequencing
High throughput methods accelerate the drug discovery, biomolecule detection and sequencing applications pipeline. Single molecule detection technique facilitates the implementation of high throughput methods by eliminating ... -
Molecular Transport in Polyelectrolyte Multilayers
(2018-06-26)Layer-by-layer assembly of polyelectrolytes is a simple technique based on the self-assembly of polycations and polyanions mainly by electrostatic interactions, which has gained considerable scientific interest for its ... -
Nanopore Based Single-molecule Sensors
In the past two decades nanopores have been used as highly sensitive detection systems for exploring the properties of analytes at single molecule resolution. The small dimensions of a nanopore permit the molecule of ... -
Self-organisation of bacteria through swarming
Swarming is a unique example of social behaviour in bacteria. They represent the collective effort of bacteria to translocate on moist substrates. The bacteria extract fluid from the substrate through osmosis and produces ... -
Self-referencing Techniques in Optical Label-free Bio-molecular Sensing
Measurement of molecular interactions is essential for fundamental biological studies as well as for the development of health diagnostics devices. Several label-free and labeled techniques to characterize and quantify ... -
Statistical Inference in Biological and Diagnostic Systems
Biological systems are exceptionally good at sensing their environment with extraordinary precision. Certain single cellular organisms are even capable of detecting chemicals of the order of a single molecule. To achieve ... -
Substrate Independent Non-covalent Based Surface Functionalization Using Poyelectrolyte Multilayers for Bio-applications
(2018-04-23)The electrostatic layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly of polyelectrolyte’s has shown applications in thin film coatings, micro patterning, nano-bioreactors and capsules for drug delivery. The film architecture can be precisely ... -
Transport in Interfacial Systems: Biosensor, Polymer, Colloid & Bacteria
Life forms as we know emerged due to unique mechanical and transport properties exhibited by Soft Materials at interface. For instance, the interior of a cell is separated from outside environment by lipid bilayer which ...
