Abstract
Surface chemistry plays an important role in the adsorption and immobilization of enzymes and antibodies. Gas plasma technology performs surface preparation that assists in the attachment of molecules. Surface chemistry helps to manage a material’s wetting, joining, or the reproducibility of surface interactions. There are numerous examples of commerically available products that utilize gas plasma in their manufacturing process. Examples of products treated by gas plasma are well plates, microfluidic devices, membranes, fluid dispensers, and some medical devices. This chapter presents an overview of gas plasma technology and provides a guide for using gas plasma for designing surfaces in product development or research.
