This book was released on 2016 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pressing performance demands require next-generation biosensors to detect target chemical and biological molecules with higher sensitivity, shorter response times, and lower detection limit. Micro- and nanoscale devices are attractive for a wide range of biosensor applications since at small scale, in addition to being more compact, the device may exhibit improved performance. The benefits include minimization of tissue damage for implantable devices, improved spatial resolution and sensitivity, as well as increased surface charge to mass ratio, which is important for the performance of our novel technology for nucleic acid detection described below. Borrowing from the processing technologies used in the semiconductor industry, we implemented micromachining techniques to fabricate devices at both the micro- and nanoscale. In this dissertation, we present our work on the fabrication and characterization of two next-generation biosensors. The first device we fabricated is a sequence-specific nucleic acid sensor based on the blockage of a nanopore. Current methods for nucleic acid detection generally rely on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and fluorescent labeling, however, these methods render the devices slow, expensive, complex, and bulky. In order to address these limitations, a new sensor was fabricated from a single glass wafer, consisting of a glass nanopore in a thin glass membrane. For nanopore sensing, low frequency noise is critical since it limits the discrimination of signal change based on target analyte movement from the fluctuation of noise. To further our understanding of nanopores, we observed how different pore geometries affect noise characteristics, and then compared this newly developed glass nanopore to conventional Si-based nanopores. Based on the analysis, low-noise glass nanopores, suitable for sequence-specific nucleic acid detection, were fabricated. By scaling down the pore diameter to the nano-regime, 1 aM detection of 16S rRNA from Escherichia coli was demonstrated even in the presence of a million-fold background of RNA from Pseudomona putida. This new platform for the PCR-free, optics-free, label-free sequence-specific nucleic acid detection shows the potential to detect pathogens in body fluids, food, or water. In addition, we developed a new method to transfer enzyme to a microelectrode array on an implantable microprobe, which enables fabrication of better performing microprobes for the sensing of multiple neurochemicals in vivo. Monitoring the release of neurotransmitters in real-time offers valuable information necessary to understand neurological disorders and abnormal behaviors. We employed polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) stamping to transfer enzyme onto microelectrode array microprobes. A model enzyme, glucose oxidase (GOx), was stamped onto the surface of disk electrodes to test the feasibility of PDMS stamping for biosensor fabrication. The model sensor showed a good combination of performance (29 A/mM cm2 sensitivity and 4 M detection limit) proving that PDMS stamping offers a simple and cost-effective enzyme deposition method for construction of electroenzymatic sensors. The next step was to add an alignment function to PDMS stamping to create microprobes with dual sensing (glucose and choline) capabilities for in vivo applications. Two different enzymes, GOx and choline oxidase (ChOx), were selectively transferred onto specific sites in a 4 microelectrode array by PDMS stamping with alignment using a microscope and a custom-built stage. The dual sensor showed improved consistency and performance including sensitivity to choline and to glucose (286 and 117 A/mM cm2, respectively) as well as low detection limits (3 and 1 M, respectively). This work demonstrated the ability to immobilize specific enzymes on selected microelectrodes in an array to give a high performance microprobe for simultaneous sensing of two analytes for neuroscience application.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Microphysiological systems are three-dimensional (3D) in vitro systems that recapitulate crucial biological aspects of cell heterogeneity and native tissue architecture by mimicking complex structures that are impossible in two-dimensional (2D) cell cultures. Microelectrode arrays (MEAs) are biosensors used to spatially and temporally monitor the activity of microphysiological systems by transducing cellular signals into electronic signals to provide quantitative data on the in vitro system. Conventional MEAs are typically planar in nature, however, 3D MEAs offer several advantages such as better simulation of an in vivo cellular environment and improved signal-to-noise ratio and cell-electrode coupling. MEA fabrication utilizing traditional cleanroom methods is rather extensive, expensive, and specialized, therefore this thesis presents a transition from 2D MEAs fabricated via the cleanroom approach to 3D MEAs fabricated via the makerspace approach utilizing polymers. The first study in the thesis discussed the fabrication and characterization of 2D MEA devices using cleanroom methods and investigated post-processing methods to address limitations that arise for planar devices. The next study introduced the makerspace approach, where benchtop techniques were used to successfully fabricate and characterize a fully functional 3D MEA. A subsequent study investigated another benchtop method to define an electrical insulation using a pour-spin method of polystyrene solution. However, there was a challenge of adhesion of the PS to the substrate, which was improved by both utilizing another type of printer and functionalizing these surfaces with polydopamine. In the final study of the thesis, a benchtop technique called electrospinning was used to define synthetic polymer-based nanofibers atop of the 3D MEAs to simulate extracellular matrices as well as demonstrate their potential as drug delivery systems. This thesis demonstrates the highly versatile nature of makerspace microfabrication utilizing polymers to allow for new processes that offer advanced functionalities when producing microdevices such as 3D MEAs interfacing with microphysiological systems.
