At Long Night of Research in Graz, Austria, visitors to BNN’s booth to learn about safety and sustainability of nanotechnology in everyday life.

Watch this video for a step-by-step demonstration of immobilizing DNA origami (hybrids) on Parylen surfaces, from the DeDNAed partners.

In addition to coordinating the DeDNAed project, TU Chemnitz leads the “Integration of DNA origami hybrids” and “Transfer to flexible substrates and biosafety”. They are a bridge between the nanocomponents.

DeDNAed partner BNN generates a Safe-by-Design (SbD) concept for the sensor platform. In addition, BNN manages the communication and dissemination activities for the H2020 project.

DeDNAed partner TECNALIA is working with antibodies decorated with nanoclusters as well as nanobodies. They also lead the exploitation of the project.

The Institute of Molecules and Materials of Le Mans (IMMM) is in charge of the characterization of the optical and plasmonic properties of the nanostructures included in the bioanalytical platform. It also determines the SERS efficiency and the sensing performances of the platform. Finally, it is involved in the validation of the sensor for food and biomedical applications.

DeDNAed partner CIC biomaGUNE is responsible for design, synthesis, and characterization of different sensing biorecognition elements (antibodies and DNA aptamers) in pure state and modified with metallic and semiconductor atomic clusters. They also design, synthesize, and provide metallic nanoparticles of different size and shape as amplifiers of optical read out signals.

Save the date for the TechForum Millstatt which will tak place from  3 – 7 June 2024 in Millstatt, Austria.

BioCHIP Berlin focuses on technologies and applications of microfluidic platforms, fabrication techniques, system integration and emerging applications for life sciences.
