Smart active antibiotic nanocarriers with protease surface functionality can overcome biofilms of resistant bacteria (2020)
Journal Article
Weldrick, P. J., Hardman, M. J., & Paunov, V. N. (2021). Smart active antibiotic nanocarriers with protease surface functionality can overcome biofilms of resistant bacteria. Materials Chemistry Frontiers, 5(2), 961-972. https://doi.org/10.1039/d0qm00874e

Treating bacterial infections with species demonstrating antibiotic resistance to the chosen antibiotic is often hindered due to the ability of certain bacteria to grow biofilms where they can effectively hide and resist the antibiotic action. We rep... Read More about Smart active antibiotic nanocarriers with protease surface functionality can overcome biofilms of resistant bacteria.

High-throughput fabrication of hepatic cell clusteroids with enhanced growth and functionality for tissue engineering applications (2020)
Journal Article
Wang, A., Madden, L. A., & Paunov, V. N. (2020). High-throughput fabrication of hepatic cell clusteroids with enhanced growth and functionality for tissue engineering applications. Materials Advances, 1(8), 3022-3032. https://doi.org/10.1039/d0ma00635a

Culturing of cells as three-dimensional (3D) clusters can enhance in vitro tests for basic biological research as well as for therapeutics development. Such 3D culture models, however, are often more complicated, cumbersome and expensive than two-dim...

Advanced biomedical applications based on emerging 3D cell culturing platforms (2020)
Journal Article
Wang, A., Madden, L. A., & Paunov, V. N. (2020). Advanced biomedical applications based on emerging 3D cell culturing platforms. Journal of Materials Chemistry B, 8(46), 10487-10501. https://doi.org/10.1039/d0tb01658f

It is of great value to develop reliable in vitro models for cell biology and toxicology. However, ethical issues and the decreasing number of donors restrict the further use of traditional animal models in various fields, including the emerging fiel...

Bioimprint Mediated Label-Free Isolation of Pancreatic Tumor Cells from a Healthy Peripheral Blood Cell Population (2020)
Journal Article
Pelle, M., Das, A. A. K., Madden, L. A., & Paunov, V. N. (in press). Bioimprint Mediated Label-Free Isolation of Pancreatic Tumor Cells from a Healthy Peripheral Blood Cell Population. Advanced Biosystems, Article 2000054. https://doi.org/10.1002/adbi.202000054

New techniques are required for earlier diagnosis and response to treatment of pancreatic cancer. Here, a label-free approach is reported in which circulating pancreatic tumor cells are isolated from healthy peripheral blood cells via cell bioimprint...

ACS Applied Bio Materials, 3(2), 789-800. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsabm.9b00770

We report a cell recognition chromatography approach for blood cancer cell separation from healthy peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) based on sizematched functionalized particle imprints. Negative imprints were prepared from layers of 15 μm...
