CONTACT PRINTING STAMPS

Platypus Technologies offers Contact Printing Stamps in your choice of planar, micro- or nano-patterns.

Contact Printing is the process whereby a chemical or biological agent is adsorbed to a low energy surface (such as PDMS) and is transferred to a high energy surface (such as gold or plain glass) through contact. The printing surface of gold may also be enhanced by functionalization of the surface with a thiol-based self-assembled monolayer (SAM) to maximize transfer and allow for further manipulation of the printed entities.

APPLICATIONS

Platypus™ Contact Printing Stamps may be used for several applications:

• Printing of biological molecules (e.g. proteins) onto a high energy surface
• Micro-patterning or nano-patterning of chemistries onto a surface
• Patterning of self-assembled monolayers
• Printing of molecules onto a thiol-based self-assembled monolayer
