Development of a fluid functionalized lipidic matrix applied to direct in situ polynucleotide detection

Transient aging of a liquid–gas interface stretched by standing waves: On the interplay of chemical kinetics

“…The peak-to-peak amplitude of this oscillating term (dotted line in Fig. 3), whose time-dependence involves a sum of erf functions, tends asymptotically to plateau out 4 Whenż → 0, this inverse transform behaves like a Dirac which permits to recover the analytical expression of the volume concentration at the vicinity of the interfaceĊ 1s . 5 Each figure has been carried out making use of a home-made Matlab routine to calculate the numerical values of the analytical expressions of interest.…”

“…This article bears on a new type of biochip with a specifically functionalised liquid-gas interface [3][4][5]. Among other possibilities, this type of fluid biochip could afford a novel mode of label free detection based on changes in the surface mechanical properties induced by the adsorption of molecules under investigation ("target" molecules) at this functionalised interface.…”

Unveiling the interaction of DNA–octadecylamine at the air–water interface by ultraviolet-visible reflection spectroscopy

“…The lateral compressibility parameter C s or the compressibility modulus b ¼ 1/C s can be used to characterize the interactions of charged biomolecules with a functionalized monolayer and changes in the interfacial packing properties. 24,28 The lateral compressibility coefficient C s can be directly calculated from the pressure-area isotherm data obtained from the monolayer compression using the following equation: 28…”

New Features on the Phase Transitions of Behenic Acid Monolayers as Unveiled by 2D‐Compressibility Coefficient

“…[20][21][22][23][24] To understand the phase transition mechanism on the supported monolayers or at least to detect the existence of phase transitions is important when we need closely packed self-assembled molecular monolayers for particular applications. Two-dimensional compressibility has been proven to be a sensitive quantity to characterize phase transitions of Langmuir films.…”
