Biomimetic silica microspheres in biosensing.
Lipid vesicles spontaneously fuse and assemble into a lipid bilayer on planar or spherical silica surfaces and other substrates. The supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) maintain characteristics of biological membranes, and are thus considered to be biomembrane mimetic systems that are stable because of the underlying substrate. Examples of their shared characteristics with biomembranes include late...
متن کاملFrictional performance of silica microspheres
Wepresent a fundamental study of the frictional performance of silicamicrospheres, either 4, 2, or 0.5 mm in diameter, on a silicon substrate. The tribological properties of these rolling systems were measured with a ball-on-flat tribometer at various loads. The frictional performance of the rolling systems is found to be highly dependent on load and sphere diameter. Rolling motion was confirme...
متن کاملSilaffins in Silica Biomineralization and Biomimetic Silica Precipitation
Biomineralization processes leading to complex solid structures of inorganic material in biological systems are constantly gaining attention in biotechnology and biomedical research. An outstanding example for biomineral morphogenesis is the formation of highly elaborate, nano-patterned silica shells by diatoms. Among the organic macromolecules that have been closely linked to the tightly contr...
متن کاملProtein-templated biomimetic silica nanoparticles.
Biomimetic silica particles can be synthesized as a nanosized material within minutes in a process mimicked from living organisms such as diatoms and sponges. In this work, we have studied the effect of bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a template to direct the synthesis of silica nanoparticles (NPs) with the potential to associate proteins on its surface. Our approach enables the formation of sphe...
متن کاملHierarchical {001}-faceted BiOBr microspheres as a novel biomimetic catalyst: dark catalysis towards colorimetric biosensing and pollutant degradation.
In recent years, considerable effort has been devoted to finding novel enzyme mimetics with improved catalytic activities. However, the insightful understanding of such catalytic process is still elusive. In this paper, we report for the first time a typical photoactive layer-structured BiOBr as a novel biomimetic catalyst possessing highly efficient intrinsic peroxidase-like activity. Moreover...
