Biosensor - Printable Feature Size

Zimmer and Peacock were asked what printing techniques and what feature sizes we could print with when applying proteins and other biomaterials to bioMEMS and biosensor substrates, and so we have made this short note.

 

We have two primary printing techniques when applying biologically relevant films to bioMEMS, which are piezo digital printing and screen printing.

 

The droplet size for the piezo printing is 10 nL and above, whilst the screen printing has a resolution of approximately 200 micrometers, see design rules.


Zimmer and Peacock are able to digitally print and screen print onto a number of substrates.
