The aim of this collaborative research project is to investigate the printability of proteins and other biomolecules on new polyethylene-based materials, recently developed by PolyAnalytik, as well as to develop novel ink-formulated biomaterials. Such biomolecule-functionalized polymers will form the basis for making stretchable biomaterials for disease diagnosis, environmental contaminants quantification, and etc. Dr. Yufeng Tong and his research team at the University of Windsor will work with the industry partner, PolyAnalytik, to achieve the objectives of this research. Specifically, we will develop an ink formulation suitable for proteins, test printing on polymers, optimize and characterize the function of the proteins on the polymers.

这一合作研究项目的目的是研究蛋白质和其他生物分子在PolyAnalytik最近开发的新型聚乙烯材料上的印刷适宜性，以及开发新型墨水配方生物材料。这种生物分子功能化聚合物将成为制造可拉伸生物材料的基础，用于疾病诊断、环境污染物定量等。温莎大学的童玉峰博士和他的研究团队将与行业合作伙伴PolyAnalytik合作，实现这项研究的目标。具体地说，我们将开发一种适合蛋白质的油墨配方，测试聚合物上的印刷，优化和表征蛋白质在聚合物上的功能。
