 Spot on! Cell-free protein expression on surfaces can be implemented in biosensors and in microfluidic devices like that shown in the picture. Here, proteins are generated and immobilized successively on separated spots in a microfluidic reactor. This approach opens up novel opportunities for basic and applied biomedical research.
