Developing Method to Measure Thermal Fluctuations of
Multiple Particles with DEP Tweezers
 
Article Published in ACS Nano
 
 
 
A Yonsei research team headed by Biomedical Engineering Professor Sang-woo Lee has developed a method to measure the thermal fluctuations of trapped multiple particles with dielectrophoretic (DEP) tweezers. The research should have important applications for understanding more about the dynamics in molecular interactions, specifically in terms of biological phenomena like DNA characteristics analysis, protein combination, and extinction.
 
The findings of Professor Lee and his team appeared in ACS Nano, a journal published by the American Chemical Society. The title of the article is “Biaxial Dielectrophoresis Force Spectroscopy: A Stoichiometric Approach for Examining Intermolecular Weak Binding Interactions”
