Printing With Enzymes
Roland Piquepaille writes “Researchers at Duke University have developed a new printing technique using catalysts to create microdevices such as labs-on-a-chip. Their inkless printing technique uses enzymes from E. coli bacteria and has an accuracy of less than 2 nanometers. While they’re are now using enzymes to stamp nanopatterns without ink, the research team is already working with non-enzymatic catalysts. And it added that ‘future versions of the inkless technique could be used to build complex nanoscale devices with unprecedented precision.’”
