Multiplexed and Switchable Release of Distinct Fluids from Microneedle Platforms via Conducting Polymer Nanoactuators for Potential Drug Delivery.

Sensors and actuators. B, Chemical

Valdés-Ramírez G, Windmiller JR, Claussen JC, Martinez AG, Kuralay F, Zhou M, Zhou N, Polsky R, Miller PR, Narayan R, Wang J.
PMID: 24174709
Sens Actuators B Chem. 2012 Jan 03;161(1). doi: 10.1016/j.snb.2011.11.085.

We report on the development of a microneedle-based multiplexed drug delivery actuator that enables the controlled delivery of multiple therapeutic agents. Two individually-addressable channels on a single microneedle array, each paired with its own reservoir and conducting polymer nanoactuator,...

Gold nanoparticle-enhanced microchip capillary electrophoresis.

Analytical chemistry

Pumera M, Wang J, Grushka E, Polsky R.
PMID: 11816598
Anal Chem. 2001 Nov 15;73(22):5625-8. doi: 10.1021/ac015589e.

We describe here the use of gold nanoparticles in conjunction with chip-based capillary electrophoresis to improve the selectivities between solutes and to increase the efficiency of the separation. We coated the microchannel wall of a microfluidic device with a...

Genomagnetic electrochemical assays of DNA hybridization.

Talanta

Wang J, Xu D, Erdem A, Polsky R, Salazar MA.
PMID: 18968572
Talanta. 2002 Apr 01;56(5):931-8. doi: 10.1016/s0039-9140(01)00653-1.

An electrochemical genomagnetic hybridization assay has been developed to take advantage of a new and efficient magnetic separation/mixing process, the amplification feature of enzyme labels, and single-use thick-film carbon transducers operated in the pulse-voltammetric mode. It represents the first...

Perioperative complications of transseptosphenoidal excision for pituitary adenomas.

Skull base surgery

Persky MS, Brunner E, Cooper PR, Cohen NL.
PMID: 17171014
Skull Base Surg. 1996;6(4):231-5. doi: 10.1055/s-2008-1058631.

Although complications of transseptosphenoidal (TSS) pituitary surgery have been discussed in the literature, there has not been an analysis of complication rates related to clinical features and the nature of the tumor. A retrospective review of 366 TSS procedures...

Quantifying stochastic uncertainty and presenting results of cost-effectiveness analyses.

Expert review of pharmacoeconomics & outcomes research

Glick HA, Briggs AH, Polsky D.
PMID: 19807505
Expert Rev Pharmacoecon Outcomes Res. 2001 Oct;1(1):25-36. doi: 10.1586/14737167.1.1.25.

In the last decade, major advances have been made in the statistical methods for quantifying uncertainty in stochastic cost-effectiveness studies. In this paper, we provide a guide to the literature in which we highlight the preferred methods for confidence...

A parallel microfluidic channel fixture fabricated using laser ablated plastic laminates for electrochemical and chemiluminescent biodetection of DNA.

Biomicrofluidics

Edwards TL, Harper JC, Polsky R, Lopez DM, Wheeler DR, Allen AC, Brozik SM.
PMID: 22276087
Biomicrofluidics. 2011 Dec;5(4):44115-4411514. doi: 10.1063/1.3664694. Epub 2011 Dec 15.

Herein is described the fabrication and use of a plastic multilayer 3-channel microfluidic fixture. Multilayer devices were produced by laser machining of plastic polymethylmethacrylate and polyethyleneterapthalate laminates by ablation. The fixture consisted of an array of nine individually addressable...
