Label-free protein detection based on the heat-transfer method-a case study with the peanut allergen Ara h 1 and aptamer-based synthetic receptors
Marloes Peeters,Marloes Peeters,Bart van Grinsven,Thomas J. Cleij,Kathia L. Jiménez-Monroy,Peter Cornelis,Elena Pérez-Ruiz,Gideon Wackers,Gideon Wackers,Ronald Thoelen,Ronald Thoelen,Ward De Ceuninck,Ward De Ceuninck,Jeroen Lammertyn,Patrick Wagner,Patrick Wagner +15 more
TL;DR: This is the first report on HTM-based detection of proteins, in this case specifically with aptamer-type receptors, and results indicate detection limits in the lower nanomolar regime in buffer liquid.
Laser-Grafted Molecularly Imprinted Polymers for the Detection of Histamine from Organocatalyzed Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization
Gijs Ramakers,Gideon Wackers,Vanessa Trouillet,Alexander Welle,Patrick Wagner,Tanja Junkers,Tanja Junkers +6 more
TL;DR: To be applicable to in vivo measuring, molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) based sensors need to have high reproducibility, require miniaturization, and must be free of toxic materials as discussed by the authors.

Array Formatting of the Heat-Transfer Method (HTM) for the Detection of Small Organic Molecules by Molecularly Imprinted Polymers
Gideon Wackers,Thijs Vandenryt,Peter Cornelis,Evelien Kellens,Ronald Thoelen,Ward De Ceuninck,Patricia Losada-Pérez,Bart van Grinsven,Marloes Peeters,Patrick Wagner +9 more
TL;DR: The first steps towards a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP)-based biomimetic sensor array for the detection of small organic molecules via the heat-transfer method (HTM) are presented.
From colossal magnetoresistance to solar cells: An overview on 66 years of research into perovskites
TL;DR: In the case of perovskite lattices, there are various superstructures and orbital-ordering effects to cope elegantly with distortions as mentioned in this paper and the compositional and structural flexibility offers a large toolbox to design and synthesize perovsites with tailored properties searched for by physicists.
Real-Time Monitoring of Aptamer Functionalization and Detection of Ara H1 by Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy and Dissipation-Mode Quartz Crystal Microbalance
Marloes Peeters,Jiménez-Monroy K.L,Libert C,Y. Eurlings,Cuypers W,Gideon Wackers,Stijn Duchateau,Robaeys P,Nesládek M,van Grinsven B,Elena Pérez-Ruiz,Jeroen Lammertyn,Patricia Losada-Pérez,Patrick Wagner +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Amino (NH2)-terminated Ara h 1 aptamers were covalently attached to carboxylated gold surfaces employing carbodiimide chemistry.
