Abstract

We have demonstrated microscale patterning of biotin and streptaividin proteins using an athermal rapid prototyping process based on piezoelectric inkjet technology. A MEMS-based piezoelectric actuator was used to dispense picoliter quantities of fluid through micron-sized nozzles. Atomic force microscopy and Fourier infrared spectroscopy studies were performed on CAD/CAM deposited proteins that were prepared using several firing voltages. Our results indicate that piezoelectric inkjet deposition is a powerful non-contact, non-destructive process for developing high-throughput biological microarrays for use in biosensing, cell culturing, and tissue engineering.
