Optimizing Silanization to Functionalize Stainless Steel Wire: Towards Breast Cancer Stem Cell Isolation

Chemically modified metal surfaces have been used to recognize and capture specific cell types and biomolecules. In this work, stainless steel wires were functionalized with aptamers against breast cancer stem cell markers. Stainless steel wires were first electropolished and silanized via electrode...
