  • Method of coating surfaces with nanoparticles for biological analysis of cells
    Patent number: 11453859
    Abstract: A method of coating a surface with nanoparticles for biological analysis of cells that includes the steps of cleaning the surface with an oxidizing acid, treating the surface with an organosilane, coating the surface with nanoparticles, and then growing cells on the surface coated with the nanoparticles. The surface may be a glass surface, a silica-based surface, a plastic-based surface or a polymer-based surface. The nanoparticles may be gold-based nanomaterials.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 14, 2019
    Date of Patent: September 27, 2022
    Assignee: BioVentures, LLC
    Inventors: Samir V. Jenkins, Robert J. Griffin, Michael J. Borrelli
