Abstract

It is demonstrated in this study that the nanoliter reactor arrays with an inkjet printing, can be used for high throughput screen of antibiotic function. As a model antibiotic, gramicidin was used in this study. The gramicidin embedded lipid vesicles were immobilized on the surface in the nanoliter reactor structure with control of the volume in the nanoliter reactor. By dispensing acidic drops into the reactor, the gramicidin function was monitored. The technique developed in this research also has a great potential to be used for discovery of drugs.
