Rapid Fabrication of Protein Microarrays via Autogeneration and on-Chip Purification of Biotinylated Probes.

abstract：:Whole cell biosensors are genetic systems that link the presence of a chemical, or other stimulus, to a user-defined gene expression output for applications in sensing and control. However, the gene expression level of biosensor regulatory components required for optimal performance is nonintuitive, and classical iter...
