We report the observation of electrically induced changes in transmissivity in Fabry-Perot devices consisting of spin-cast azo-dye/polymer films deposited between gold mirrors. In poled samples the observed modulation shows a linear dependence on the applied modulating voltage. The ratio of the transmissivity modulation observed using incident transverse magnetic polarization to that observed using transverse electric polarization is used to demonstrate that the electrooptic effect dominates the modulation. This is, to our knowledge, the first reported use of a polymeric thin film linear electrooptic material in a Fabry-Perot structure and demonstrates the use of etalons to enhance electrooptic effects in very thin films.

In this study, we integrated several components, including a droplet generator, a pico-injector, and an analytical inference technique, Proteolytic Activity Matrix Analysis (PrAMA), to create a platform for assessing multiple specific protease activity assays with minimal liquid handling and sample-requirement for personal medicine analysis. The microfluidic platform enables the direct measurements of protease enzyme activity, which is more physiologically informative than the standard measurements to determine the enzyme concentration alone. By tracking hundreds of picoliter droplets containing biological samples mixed with unique FRET-based protease substrates and inhibitors, the assay simultaneously infers multiple specific protease activities with minimal (

Western blotting readily identifies specific proteins amidst complex biological backgrounds [1, 2]. Nevertheless, immunob-lotting suffers from tremendous labor-intensive and time-intensive requirements [3]. The slab-gel assays require 1-2 days for completion with multiple hands-on "blotting" steps and yield semi-quantitative information. Recently, our group has introduced new approaches for completing Western blotting. The microfluidic integration strategies introduced and used allow rapid results reporting, full assay automation, and limited sample consumption (1-10 uL). Our integration strategies use spatial, temporal, and spatiotemporal modulation of separation mechanisms in fully electrophoretic systems. The present study reports on recapitulation of immunoaffinity in previously sized proteins, using novel in-transit electrophoretic removal of SDS from SDS-protein complexes. Early results show both the length- and timescales for protein 'renaturation' are compatible with on-chip operation. Further, substantial binding affinity is recapitulated using this streamlined and promising approach.
