Saccharomyces cerevisiae containing fluorescent markers are ideal candidates for applications in microfluidic screening systems as fluorescence signal is emitted without the need of additional reagents. Here we develop a method for magnetic functiona... Read More about Rapid and direct magnetization of GFP-reporter yeast for micro-screening systems.

A direct technique for preparation of magnetically functionalised living yeast cells (2009)
Journal Article

A direct technique for preparation of magnetically functionalised yeast cells by using polyelectrolyte mediated deposition of magnetite nanoparticles is reported. We demonstrate that the cells preserve their viability after the magnetite deposition a... Read More about A direct technique for preparation of magnetically functionalised living yeast cells.

Strained arrays of colloidal nanoparticles: Conductance and magnetoresistance enhancement (2009)
Journal Article
Rybchenko, S. I., Dyab, A. K. F., Haywood, S. K., Itskevich, I. E., & Paunov, V. N. (2009). Strained arrays of colloidal nanoparticles: Conductance and magnetoresistance enhancement. Nanotechnology, 20(42), Article ARTN 425607. https://doi.org/10.1088/0957-4484/20/42/425607

Colloidal nanoparticles are very popular as building blocks of functional arrays for electronic and optical applications. However, there is a problem in achieving electrical conductivity in such nanoarrays due to their molecular shells. These shells,...

UV polymerisation of surfactants adsorbed at the nematic liquid crystal-water interface produces an optical response (2009)
Journal Article
Fletcher, P. D. I., Kang, N., & Paunov, V. N. (2009). UV polymerisation of surfactants adsorbed at the nematic liquid crystal-water interface produces an optical response. Chemphyschem, 10(17), 3046-3053. https://doi.org/10.1002/cphc.200900405

We have investigated the changes in crossed polariser optical textures produced by adsorption and UV polymerisation of a range of polymerisable surfactants at the interface between a nematic liquid crystal and water. Similar to non-polymerisable surf... Read More about UV polymerisation of surfactants adsorbed at the nematic liquid crystal-water interface produces an optical response.

Novel multifunctional micro-ampoules for structuring and encapsulation (2009)
Journal Article
