Abstract:
In this minireview, we summarize the recent development of liquid-infused slippery surfaces (LISS) for biomedical applications. The selected topics are divided into two parts: the material designs and emerging strategies to fabricate slippery surface, and their applications with strong and direct relevance to biomedical areas including antibiofouling, antithrombosis, medical device coatings and surface enhanced/assisted detection. We also describe the most critical directions in need of development to adapt this new approach to biomedical use.

Electric Field at the Surface of a Conductor
In the 19th century, Michael Faraday conducted the famous ice pail experiment to prove that the charges always reside on the surface of a conductor. The experimental set-up consists of a conducting uncharged container mounted on an insulating stand. The outer surface of the container is...
