Engineering Science

Technology

• Allows a user to produce their own customized multiplexed bioassay without the need for complex and expensive microarray spotters or proprietary equipment.
• End-users create arrays of bioreagent spots by pipetting solutions into temporary wells on the substrate, coupling each bioreagent to the substrate in its respective area.

Applications and Advantages

Technology

Halogenated hydrocarbons are widely used in flame retardants, electronics, pharmaceuticals, and solvents. The presence of these materials in waste streams continues to be a significant environmental problem. Traditional treatment methods require extensive energy, create toxic by-products, or are incompatible with air or water.
