PATTERNING OF BIOMATERIALS USING FLUORINATED MATERIALS AND FLUORINATED SOLVENTS

摘要

A method for patterning biomaterials is presented. The biomaterials exhibit biological activity after patterning. The use of bio-compatible imaging materials and solvents allows conventional lithographic patterning methods to be applied to patterning biomolecules. The method allows deposition of multiple layers without subsequent layers affecting earlier laid deposits and can pattern multiple different biomolecules on a single surface.
