Field-effect control of protein transport in a nanofluidic transistor circuit

Karnik, Rohit, Castelino, Kenneth, Majumdar, Arun·2006·Applied Physics Letters

Abstract

Electrostatic interactions play an important role in nanofluidic channels when the channel size is comparable to the Debye screening length. Electrostatic fields have been used to control concentration and transport of ions in nanofluidic transistors. Here, we report a transistor-reservoir-transistor circuit that can be used to turn “on” or “off” protein transport using electrostatic fields with gate voltages of ±1V. Our results suggest that global electrostatic interactions of the protein were dominant over other interactions in the nanofluidic transistor. The fabrication technique also demonstrates the feasibility of nanofluidic integrated circuits for the manipulation of biomolecules in picoliter volumes.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
