Magnetically Enhanced Dielectrophoretic Assembly of Horseradish Peroxidase Molecules: Chaining and Molecular Monolayers

Synergy in assembly: The combination of a magnetostatic field with dielectrophoresis can assemble biological molecules—something not possible when these techniques are used in isolation. The AFM image shows horseradish peroxidase (HRP) monolayers. Electromagnetic treatment does not affect the molecu...

Summary:Synergy in assembly: The combination of a magnetostatic field with dielectrophoresis can assemble biological molecules—something not possible when these techniques are used in isolation. The AFM image shows horseradish peroxidase (HRP) monolayers. Electromagnetic treatment does not affect the molecular structure, as indicated by the uninhibited catalytic activity of HRP after treatment.
