A field-capable rapid plant DNA extraction protocol using microneedle patches for botanical surveying and monitoring. [PDF]

Appl Plant Sci, 2023
Abstract Premise A novel protocol for rapid plant DNA extraction using microneedles is proposed, which supports botanic surveys, taxonomy, and systematics. This protocol can be conducted in the field with limited laboratory skills and equipment. The protocol is validated by sequencing and comparing the results with QIAGEN spin‐column DNA extractions ...

Project ChemicalBlooms: Collaborating with citizen scientists to survey the chemical diversity and phylogenetic distribution of plant epicuticular wax blooms. [PDF]

Plant Direct
Abstract Plants use chemistry to overcome diverse challenges. A particularly striking chemical trait that some plants possess is the ability to synthesize massive amounts of epicuticular wax that accumulates on the plant's surfaces as a white coating visible to the naked eye.

Pneumatic programmable superrepellent surfaces

Droplet, Volume 1, Issue 1, Page 48-55, July 2022., 2022
Morphological transformation of surface structures is an efficient way to in situ tune the wettability, which mainly relies on smart responsive materials. We develop a pneumatic programmable superrepellent surface by tailoring conventional wetting materials with the aid of microfluidics, showing an in situ morphological transformation for wettability ...
