3:40 PM EW-TuA-6 Picolitre Dosing of Proteins onto Biomaterials Microarrays to Monitor Cell Response in a Combinatorial Assay
Claude Dufresne (Scienion US, Inc.); Moamen Hammad, Morgan Alexander (University of Nottingham, UK)
A high throughput model of protein pre-adsorption on biomaterials for control of cell adhesion and proliferation is being investigated using Scienion's non-contact low volume dispensing technology. Valuable proteins combinations (31 in triplicate) were piezo-dispensed and pre-adsorbed onto microarray spots representing seven biomaterials. Cell density correlates with the surface chemistry of the protein pre-adsorbed polymer spots as acquired by ToF-SIMS. It is only possible to rapidly produce and assess this many protein adsorption combinations with a high throughput platform combined with high throughput surface characterization. Details of this technology will be presented.
