Surface design for selective cell catch-and-release using electrochemical reaction

Sorting of specific cells from a heterogeneous suspension is indispensable in various applications such as regenerative medicine and cancer research. Dynamic control of the biointerface between adherent cells and materials may provide a promising approach for the detachment and manipulation of cells in vitro. In this study, we try to develop the surface modified with zwitterionic oligopeptides and aptamers, with which cells can be selectively attached and then rapidly detached by the application of an electrochemical potential.
