MICROARRAY BIOCHIPS: (Contact person: Monica Simion) |
| |
Microarray technology includes applications for functional genomics, pharmacogenomics,
SNP genotyping, proteomics and cell signaling. We have expertise for microarray
manufacturing, processing, surface chemistry, detection reagents, scanning and analysis.
Specific preparation protocols and probe design workflow can be developed in function of
requested application. We are working using the new facilities, nano-plotter and microarray
scanner from NanoBioLab. |

Editing activities: "Convergence of MICRO-NANO-BIOTEHNOLOGIES" Volume 9 from the “Micro and Nanoengineering” series (edited by the Publishing House of the Romanian Academy) and
includes a selection of extended and up-dated papers presented at the 5th Seminar of
Nanoengineering and Nanotechnologies organized in 2 March 2006 by the Romanian
Academy, Council for ERA (coordinator IMT-Bucharest). Among the editors are Irina Kleps
PhD, senior research and head of the Center of Nanotechnology from IMT-Bucharest and
Professor Dan Dascalu, member of the Romanian Academy, General Manager of the IMTBucharest.
Due to the breakthrough of nanoscience and nanotechnology in all science, the topics of
the papers in this volume are various. The papers present novel results in different inter- and
multidisciplinary fields, obtained in the frame of the Romanian Research Programs
MATNANTECH and CEEX. Some of the papers presents results obtained in large
consortiums, involving also partners from Porto University, Tor Vergata University – Rome,
Glasgow University or Royal Institute of Technology – Stockholm.
The papers refers to fabrication, physical and chemical properties of nanoscale materials, atomic and nanoscale
characterization including theory, modelling, simulation and experimental methods, application of functional nanostructures
and nanoprocesses.
A group of seven papers from bio/nanotechnology field contributes to join the latest news related to topics such
as controlled drugs delivery, nanostructure formation of seed storage protein, artificial chaperones, template nanomaterials
in obtaining bioconjugated for medical applications, etc .
This publication is addressed to all interested people from research institutes, universities and companies and
will be distributed to the university libraries. |
