We do Surface Chemistry, Surface Spectroscopy and Surface Biochemistry in the Chemistry Department at the
University of California, Irvine under the direction of Prof. Robert M. Corn.

Research Overview

A quick look at our current research areas and projects.

Extreme Biosensing 2008

We are organizing a conference on ultrasensitive biosensing and nanobiotechnology -- Extreme Biosensing 2008 for December 2008 on the island of Maui, Hawaii!

Review Article on Protein Biomarkers!

See our recent article in The Analyst:
"Microarray methods for protein biomarker detection," Analyst, 133 975-983 (2008).

2008 Group Calendar!

Download the 2008 Corn Group Calendar, featuring pictures of present group members!

Langmuir Feature Article!

See our Langmuir Feature Article on SPRI and surface enzyme chemistry:
"Creating Advanced Multifunctional Biosensors with Surface Enzymatic Transformations,"Langmuir, 22 5241-5250 (2006).

SPR Imaging PDFs!

Two PDFS on SPRI, An Introduction and a short Tutorial are now available.

Reprints

Looking for one of our papers? Go to the Publications Page to pick up a reprint (pdf format).

Laboratory Procedures

We now have our Laboratory Procedures listed on this website.

Unicorn Cornshare Server

We now have a Cornshare AFP server up and running! For our collaborators, this is where we share documents, drafts, etc. (Password required).

Details of our four main research areas can be found on our Research Areas Page and our Research Picture Gallery!

A number of web-based calculations including four phase Fresnel calculations and DNA hybridization thermodynamics can be found on our Calculations Page.

We also have web page for our long term project on DNA Computing at Surfaces.

Our SPR imaging experiments are performed with the SPRimager from GWC Technologies.
