Parietal Structures of Escherichia coli Can Impact the D-Cateslytin Antibacterial Activity

Oliver Peric, Georg Fantner

Bacterial resistance to conventional antibiotics is of major concern. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are considered excellent alternatives. Among them, D-cateslytin (D-Ctl, derivative of a host defense peptide) has shown high efficiency against a broad spec ...

Integration of sharp silicon nitride tips into high-speed SU8 cantilevers in a batch fabrication process

Oliver Peric, Santiago Harald Andany, Georg Fantner, Jonathan David Adams, Matthias Neuenschwander, Nahid Hosseini

Employing polymer cantilevers has shown to outperform using their silicon or silicon nitride analogues concerning the imaging speed of atomic force microscopy (AFM) in tapping mode (intermittent contact mode with amplitude modulation) by up to one order of ...

Monolithic Fabrication of Silicon Nanowires Bridging Thick Silicon Structures

Yusuf Leblebici, Oliver Peric, Davide Sacchetto, Zuhal Tasdemir

A monolithic process is developed for the fabrication of Si nanowires within thick Si substrates. A combination of anisotropic etch and sidewall passivation is utilized to protect and release Si lines during the subsequent deep etch. An etch depth of 10 mu ...

Bacterial traps and advances in nanobiotechnology for atomic force microscopy

Oliver Peric

The atomic force microscope (AFM) allows the analysis of living microorganisms in physiological conditions on the nanometer scale. The observation of bacteria in physiological aqueous medium necessitates a robust immobilization of the bacterium to the surf ...
