Spherical Au Nanoparticle Interaction with Lipid Monolayers Probed with Sum Frequency Generation Spectroscopy

Creator:

Faase, Ryan A.

Abstract:

Nanoparticles have become more prevalent from their use in sunscreen to antimicrobial agents in socks. In light of these applications, gaining a fundamental understanding of how NPs interact with humans is crucial for their future. Specifically, how cells interact with NPs and what factors drive the modes of cellular uptake....

Investigating the Hemocompatibility of Blood-Contacting Biomaterials

Creator:

Hummel, Madeleine H.

Abstract:

Surface-associated thrombosis is a critical concern in medical device development. Current extracorporeal circulation units require systemic anticoagulation to avoid thrombosis, which can cause adverse effects such as thrombocytopenia, hypertriglyceridemia, and hyperkalemia. To address this issue, we combine the technology of polydopamine (PDA) functionalization with slippery liquid infused porous surfaces (SLIPS)....
