Do you have any idea how we can link antibody to the Silicon AFM tip for dip pen nanolithography(DPN)?

28 September 2017 0 3K Report

We want to functionalize AFM tip for dip pen nanolithography(DPN) and deposit antibodies on specific areas on the substrate. Can you please suggest a chemical linker between protein and silicon?

(For depositing antibody on the substrate, the adhesion force between antibody and the substrate must be grater than the adhesion force between tip(silicon) and antibody.)
