Abstract:
Photonic devices, systems, and methods for detecting an analyte in a biological solution (e.g., whole blood) are provided. Representative photonic devices are optical ring resonators having nanoscale features and micron-sized diameters. Due to the compact size of these devices, many resonators can be disposed on a single substrate and tested simultaneously as a sample is passed over the devices. Typical analytes include blood cells, antibodies, and pathogens, as well as compounds indicative of the presence of blood cells or pathogens (e.g., serology). In certain embodiments, blood type can be determined through photonic sensing using a combination of direct detection of blood cells and serology. By combining the detection signals of multiple devices, the type of blood can be determined.

Abstract:
Provided herein are particles assemblies including a shell surrounding a core. The shell includes a particle-stabilizing random copolymer. The core includes a core random copolymer. The particle assemblies have a biomimetic design in which the polymeric components containing discrete chemical and biological functionalities are designed to spontaneously self-assemble into particles. Also provided herein are random copolymers having conjugated therapeutic agents that can be cleaved from the copolymers by an enzyme or water.
