Aptamers are widely used in biosensing due to their specific sensitivity toward many targets. Thus, gold nanoparticle (AuNP) aptasensors are subject to intense research due to the complementary properties of aptamers as sensing elements and AuNPs as transducers. We present herein a novel method for the functional coupling of thrombin‐specific aptamers to AuNPs via an anionic, redox‐active poly(ferrocenylsilane)...
Molecular interactions in polymer/metal oxide interfaces are of paramount interest in polymer composite applications, including comolding of polymer‐metal joints, additive manufacturing, and mold release. This study shows the potential of biomimetic polydopamine (PDA) layers to control polymer‐metal adhesion covering a range from strong bonding to release for poly(lactic acid) (PLA) adhering to two...
