Abstract: The present application discloses biofunctional surfaces that have self-assembled monolayers of fluorine groups with “built-in” functional groups promote targeted cell and biomolecule binding to the surface while reducing non-specific binding. Further, this application also relates to methods for preparing functional biomolecules, viruses and cells that can be covalently immobilized to prepare biofunctional surfaces.

Abstract: The present application relates to lubricant-infused molds such as omniphobic lubricant-infused molds and uses thereof, for example, in processes for fabricating molded objects such as microfluidics devices. Such processes can comprise coating a mold with a layer comprising a lubricant-tethering group to obtain a tether-coated mold, depositing a lubricant on the tether-coated mold to obtain a lubricant-infused mold (LIM), depositing a molded object precursor into the LIM and solidifying to obtain the molded object, and removing the molded object from the LIM.
