Flexible and Turnable Biomimetic Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex (PDC) Supercapacitors

Thornton J., Christelle C., Chen E.T., Advanced Biomimetic Sensors, Inc., US

Flexible supercapacitors are challenged by low energy density and short discharge time. We report a new type of biomimetic pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (BIMPDC) supercapacitors having the self-assembling membrane (SAM) offer orders of magnitude higher in [...]

Study the Correlations Between Direct Electron Transfer Rate Constants in Four Types of Nanobiomimetic Sensors and the Ability to Kill Cancer Cells from Anti-Cancer Candidate Compounds

Chen E.T., Thornton J., Ngatchou C., Duh S-H, Kissinger P.T., Advanced Biomimetic Sensors, Inc., US

We report a new approach to study Direct Electron Transfer (DET) rate constants between an electrode surface and an active biomimetic receptor using four types of gold nanobiomimetic sensors. The goal is to find the [...]

Nanostructured Biomimetic Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex (PDC) Sensors Selectively Detect Single Brain Cancer Cell and Have the Ability to Mimic the “ATP LID”

Chen E.T., Thornton J., Ngatchou C., Duh S-H, Kissinger P.T., Advanced Biomimetic Sensors, Inc., US

Diseases such as cancer, diabetes mellitus, and brain injury can be caused by lack of conformational change in the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC). The known “ATP Lid” for the function of PDC is comprised by [...]
