In this thesis, we intend to develop the sol-gel technology (a chemical way to make glass) from the traditional "raw" materials side to a novel technology allowing realization of innovative products in the field of micro- and nanotechnology. We first prese ...
The growing demand for high levels of recombinant proteins of medical and pharmaceutical interest stimulates the development of cell bioprocess technology. Spin-filter technology is employed in order to reach high levels of such compounds. The aim of this ...
A new approach combining electrostatic and covalent bonds was established for the formation of resistant capsules with long-term stability under physiol. conditions. Three kinds of interactions were generated in the same membrane: (1) electrostatic bonds b ...
This paper reports on polyimide microfluidic devices fabricated by photolithography and a layer transfer lamination technology. The microchannels are sealed by laminating an uncured polyimide film on a partially cured layer and subsequent imidization. Sele ...
This paper reports on the technology development and characterization of polyimide-based, microfluidic channels with integrated nanoporous membranes. A layer transfer and lamination technique is used to fabricate flexible microchannels from spin-on polyimi ...
