Composite microelectrodes from PEDOT and carbon nanotubes enable advanced neuronal recording, stimulation and sensing

Gerwig R., Cesare P., Kraushaar U., Reinartz S., Giugliano M., Kilias A., Ruther P., Stett A., Stelzle M., Natural and Medical Sciences Institute, NMI, DE

The aim of this work was to design an advanced microelectrode material for neurotechnology. In order to improve signal-to-noise ratio, stimulation and sensing properties as well as cell viability, microelectrodes were modified with poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) [...]

Subcellular fractionation in a fluidic microsystem

Paulus A., Posch A., Hausmann M., Blankenstein G., Duong T., Kentsch J., Angres B., Stoll D., Stelzle M., NMI Natural and Medical Sciences Institute, DE

The availability of an easy-to-use, reproducible method for subcellular fractionation would significantly promote qualitative and quantitative analysis of subcellular protein composition. A microfluidic system with integrated electrodes was designed and fabricated allowing for dielectrophoretic manipulation [...]
