    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are disclosed for encapsulating biological entities with preservation of their biological activity. In one aspect, a method of encapsulating a biological entity includes templating a biocompatible material onto a biological structure to form a coating structure enclosing the biological structure, the coating structure having a size in the nanometer range, in which the coated biological structure preserves its biological activity within the coating structure. In some implementations of the method, the biological structure includes a virus and the biocompatible material includes silica.

    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, and devices for implementing nanoparticles to encapsulate biomolecules such as enzymes. In one aspect, a nanoparticle device includes a shell structure including an internal layer structured to enclose a hollow interior region and include one or more holes penetrating through the internal layer, and an external layer formed of a porous material around the internal layer; and an enzyme contained within the interior region of the shell structure, the enzyme having entered the shell structure through the one or more holes and incapable of passing through the external layer, in which the pores are of a size that prevents the enzyme to pass through the pores while permitting substances smaller than the pore size to pass through the pores.

    Abstract: Methods, structures, devices and systems are disclosed for implementing a fiber optic force sensing transducer. In one aspect, an exemplary fiber optic force sensing transducer device includes an optical fiber coated by at least one layer of a polyelectrolyte material that utilizes the movement of optical structures coupled to the external polyelectrolyte layer in an evanescent field produced by the optical fiber to detect forces imposing on the fiber. In one aspect, an optical sensing device includes an optical waveguide that internally guides light, one or more layers formed outside the optical waveguide within an evanescent field of the guided light in the optical waveguide, and one or more optical structures coupled to the one or more layers in the evanescent field to emit light based on interaction with the evanescent field to indicate a position of an optical structure relative to an external surface of the optical waveguide.

    Abstract: Devices and techniques are described that involve a combination of multidimensional electrokinetic, dielectrophoretic, electrophoretic and fluidic forces and effects for separating cells, nanovesicles, nanoparticulates and biomarkers (DNA, RNA, antibodies, proteins) in high conductance (ionic) strength biological samples and buffers. In disclosed embodiments, a combination of continuous and/or pulsed dielectrophoretic (DEP) forces, continuous and/or pulsed field DC electrophoretic forces, microelectrophoresis and controlled fluidics are utilized with arrays of electrodes. In particular, the use of chambered DEP devices and of a properly scaled relatively larger electrode array devices that combines fluid, electrophoretic and DEP forces enables both larger and/or clinically relevant volumes of blood, serum, plasma or other samples to be more directly, rapidly and efficiently analyzed. The invention enables the creation of “seamless” sample-to-answer diagnostic systems and devices. The devices and techniques described can also carry out the assisted self-assembly of molecules, polymers, nanocomponents and mesoscale entities into three dimensional higher order structures.
