Direct printing of trichlorosilanes on glass for selective protein adsorption and cell growth

Abstract

Here we describe new methodology that allows for direct microcontact printing of octadecyltrichlorosilane onto glass coverslips followed by backfilling with an ethylene glycol terminated trichloroalkane silane; this produces patterns with regions that promote and prevent protein adsorption and allow for control of cell growth.
