Biomimetic Screening Platforms to Study Interactions Between Engineered Nanomaterial and Biomembranes

Ying Liu, Department of Chemical Engineering, Michigan State University Engineered nanomaterials (ENM) have attractive functional properties and are increasingly being used in commercial products. However, ENM present health risks that are poorly understood and difficult to assess. Because ENM must interface with cell membranes to cause biological effects, improved methods are needed to measure ENM-biomembrane interactions. Two types of biomimetic interfaces, tethered bilayer lipid membrane (tBLM) and planar BLM (pBLM) were developed as screening platforms to characterize interactions between ENM and bilayer lipid membranes that mimic cell membranes, and to present potential applications of the methods relevant to nanotoxicology. Electrochemical and electrophysiological methods that measure ENM induced ion leakage through lipid bilayers were used to measure the time trajectory of BLM current/resistance following nanoparticle exposure. Hierarchical clustering analysis was then used to quantify and analyze statistical differences between the impedance profiles of nanoparticles that were identical except the surface functionalization. The relative advantages of the two biomimetic approaches include the potential to be adapted in a high throughput mode, along with their synergistic potential to provide multidimensional characterization of ENM-biomembrane interactions for robust health risk assessment algorithms.

Using Layer-by-Layer Technique to Fabricate Graphene Oxide-Silk Fibroin Nanomembranes with Record-Breaking Mechanical Properties Kesong Hu, Department of Materials Science & Engineering Georgia Institute of Technology We applied spin-assisted layer-by-layer (SA-LbL) assembly technique to fabricate ultrathin graphene oxide (GO)-silk fibroin (SF) nanocomposite membranes in the aim of maximizing the interactions between silk fibroin and graphene oxide, and therefore synergistically combining the toughness of silk fibroin and the stiffness of graphene oxide. The resulting ultra-robust nanomembranes have ultra-high, balanced mechanical properties: 145 GPa tensile modulus, 320 MPa ultimate stress and 2.2 MJ m-3 toughness. We suggest that these unique characteristics are facilitated by the dense network of weak interactions between the silk fibroin matrix and grapheme oxide sheets, which provides robust interphase zone with gradual stress distribution. A modulus transition model has been proposed to quantitatively characterize the parameters of the interphase layer between graphene oxide and silk fibroin. The model revealed an enhanced interphase region comprised of "frozen" silk fibroin at the GO/SF interface with Young's modulus close to that of graphene oxide.

Often mimicked but commonly overlooked, the helix is a ubiquitous motif found in nature that influences assembly and function, both on the molecular and macroscopic levels (e.g. DNA and duck mating, respectively). The present talk aims to elucidate the structure-property relationships of surfaces possessing two types of synthetic helices: poly(carbodiimide)s and fluoroalkyl helices present on hybrid fluoroPOSS materials. To this end, the surface assembly and liquid repellence of POSS compounds and POSS-enchained polymers possessing fluoroalkyl helices, as well as ill-defined silsesquioxane and silica materials possessing fluoroalkyl helices, will be presented and discussed. The emerging liquid-responsive surface properties of poly(carbodiimide)s and recent advances in their synthesis will also be presented.

   

 

 

 

 

Wettability patterning for pumpless fluid handling

Constantine M. Megaridis Micro/Nanoscale Fluid Transport Laboratory

Department of Mechanical & Industrial Engineering University of Illinois at Chicago, IL 60607, USA

Achieving controlled and rapid transport of liquids on open substrates is important for several practical applications, ranging from phase-change heat transfer to rapid chip cooling and lab-on-chip devices. We use facile, scalable surface wettability engineering approaches to fabricate patterned substrates that comprise strategically laid superhydrophilic tracks on superhydrophobic backgrounds. Spatial contrast of surface energy on the patterned substrates provides fast actuation of microliter droplets through hemiwicking and Laplace pressure-driven flow. Proof-of-concept demonstration of rapid and pumpless transport, splitting, merging and metered dispensing of liquid droplets on patterned substrates is provided. The design facilitates transport against gravity, thus making operation of 3-D devices feasible. Suitability of this approach for different microfluidic and thermophysical applications is also discussed.

The Emerging Role of Silicon in the Development of Next Generation Aerospace Materials

Joseph M. Mabry

Air Force Research Laboratory Rocket Propulsion Division

Edwards Air Force Base, CA 93524 Abstract Evolving mission criteria and cost-driven requirements for aerospace systems are motivating Air Force investments in the development of materials that exhibit advanced multifunctional and stimuli-responsive properties. Because the industrial aerospace community is extremely risk-averse, the responsibility to achieve significant advances in materials technology falls largely to the government laboratories. This presentation will discuss on-going materials research performed at the Air Force Research Laboratory, Rocket Propulsion Division, as well as the impact of silicon chemistry on these studies. Recent activities include research on the wetting behavior of nanomaterials and surfaces, the use of these materials in desired applications, and the development of high-temperature resins for composite applications. Additional applications for many of these compounds will be discussed.
