Following first regulatory approval, this class of therapeutics has been vigorously pursued to treat monogenic disorders including orphan diseases, entering hundreds of new products into pipelines. Viral vector manufacturing supporting clinical efforts has spurred the introduction of a broad swath of analytical techniques dedicated to assessing the diverse and evolving panel of Critical Quality Attributes (CQAs) of these products. Herein, we provide an overview of the current state of analytics enabling measurement of CQAs such as capsid and vector identities, product titer, transduction efficiency, impurity clearance etc. We highlight orthogonal methods and discuss the advantages and limitations of these techniques while evaluating their adaptation as process analytical technologies. Finally, we identify gaps and propose opportunities in enabling existing technologies for real-time monitoring from hardware, software, and data analysis viewpoints for technology development within viral vector biomanufacturing.}, journal={BIOTECHNOLOGY ADVANCES}, author={Sripada, Sobhana A. and Hosseini, Mahshid and Ramesh, Srivatsan and Wang, Junhyeong and Ritola, Kimberly and Menegatti, Stefano and Daniele, Michael A.}, year={2024}, month={Sep} } @article{wang_hosseini_shastry_barbieri_chu_menegatti_daniele_2023, title={Toward the quantification of adeno-associated virus titer by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy}, DOI={10.1109/BioSensors58001.2023.10281105}, abstractNote={Gene therapies have shown great promise for the potential treatment of a broad range of diseases. Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) are popular gene vectors because of their ability to target specific tissues, and they have demonstrated high transduction efficiencies in multiple neurological targets. While these therapeutics hold great promise, their biomanufacturing has limited potential cost-reduction and more widespread adoption. Herein, we report the preliminary development of an immunosensor for measuring the titer of adeno-associated virus 2 (AAV2), which may be deployed for rapid quantification of product yield during AAV biomanufacturing. We functionalized an interdigitated electrode array with anti-AAV2 antibodies, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was employed to investigate the response to AAV2 titer. A Faradaic sensing principle was utilized, in which the charge transfer resistance (Rct) of an electrochemical reporter was monitored after capture of AAV2 on the surface of the sensor. A linear response was measured over titers 1012 - 1013 capsids/mL.}, journal={2023 IEEE BIOSENSORS CONFERENCE, BIOSENSORS}, author={Wang, Junhyeong and Hosseini, Mahshid and Shastry, Shriarjun and Barbieri, Eduardo and Chu, Wenning and Menegatti, Stefano and Daniele, Michael A.}, year={2023} } @article{hosseini_rahmanian_pirzada_frick_krissanaprasit_khan_labean_2022, title={DNA aerogels and DNA-wrapped CNT aerogels for neuromorphic applications}, volume={16}, ISSN={["2590-0064"]}, url={https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mtbio.2022.100440}, DOI={10.1016/j.mtbio.2022.100440}, abstractNote={Nucleic acids are programmable materials that can self-assemble into defined or stochastic three-dimensional network architectures. Various attributes of self-assembled, cross-linked Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) hydrogels have recently been investigated, including their mechanical properties and potential biomedical functions. Herein, for the first time, we describe the successful construction of pure DNA aerogels and DNA-wrapped carbon nanotube (CNT) composite (DNA-CNT) aerogels via a single-step freeze-drying of the respective hydrogels. These aerogels reveal highly porous and randomly branched structures with low density. The electrical properties of pure DNA aerogel mimic that of a simple capacitor; in contrast, the DNA-CNT aerogel displays a fascinating resistive switching behavior in response to an applied bias voltage sweep reminiscent of a volatile memristor. We believe these novel aerogels can serve as a platform for developing complex biomimetic devices for a wide range of applications, including real-time computation, neuromorphic computing, biochemical sensing, and biodegradable functional implants. More importantly, insight obtained here on self-assembling DNA to create aerogels will pave the way to construct novel aerogel-based material platforms from DNA coated or wrapped functional entities.}, journal={MATERIALS TODAY BIO}, author={Hosseini, Mahshid and Rahmanian, Vahid and Pirzada, Tahira and Frick, Nikolay and Krissanaprasit, Abhichart and Khan, Saad A. and LaBean, Thomas H.}, year={2022}, month={Dec} } @article{frick_hosseini_guilbaud_gao_labean_2022, title={Modeling and characterization of stochastic resistive switching in single Ag2S nanowires}, volume={12}, ISSN={["2045-2322"]}, DOI={10.1038/s41598-022-09893-4}, abstractNote={Abstract}, number={1}, journal={SCIENTIFIC REPORTS}, author={Frick, Nikolay and Hosseini, Mahshid and Guilbaud, Damien and Gao, Ming and LaBean, Thomas H.}, year={2022}, month={Apr} } @article{hosseini_frick_guilbaud_gao_labean_2022, title={Resistive switching of two-dimensional Ag2S nanowire networks for neuromorphic applications}, volume={40}, ISSN={["2166-2754"]}, DOI={10.1116/6.0001867}, abstractNote={Randomly assembled networks of nanowires (NWs) can display complex memristive behaviors and are promising candidates for use as memory and computing elements in neuromorphic applications due to device fault tolerance and ease of fabrication. This study investigated resistive switching (RS) in two-dimensional, self-assembled silver sulfide (Ag2S) NW networks first experimentally and then theoretically using a previously reported stochastic RS model. The simulated switching behavior in these networks showed good correlation with experimental results. We also demonstrated fault-tolerance of a small NW network that retained RS property despite being severely damaged. Finally, we investigated information entropy in NW networks and showed unusual dynamics during switching as a result of self-organization of the memristive elements. The results of this work provide insights toward physical implementation of randomly assembled RS NW networks for reservoir and neuromorphic computing research.}, number={4}, journal={JOURNAL OF VACUUM SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY B}, author={Hosseini, Mahshid and Frick, Nikolay and Guilbaud, Damien and Gao, Ming and LaBean, Thomas H.}, year={2022}, month={Jul} } @article{malhotra_hosseini_zaferani_hall_vashaee_2020, title={Enhancement of Diffusion, Densification and Solid-State Reactions in Dielectric Materials Due to Interfacial Interaction of Microwave Radiation: Theory and Experiment}, volume={12}, ISSN={["1944-8252"]}, DOI={10.1021/acsami.0c09719}, abstractNote={A detailed theoretical model and experimental study are presented that formulate and prove the existence of a robust ponderomotive force (PMF) near the interfaces in a granular dielectric material under microwave radiation. The model calculations show that the net direction of the PMF is pore angle-dependent. For most of the pore angles, the net force is towards the interface creating a mass transport that fills the interfacial pores and facilitates densification. For small ranges of angles, near 180o and 360o, PMF drives the ions in the reverse direction and depletes the pores. However, the net force for such ranges of angles is small. The PMF also enhances the diffusion of the mobile ionic species and, consequently, accelerates the solid-state reaction by increasing the collision probability. The proof-of-concept experiments show that a mixture of elemental powders can diffuse, react, and form dense materials when radiated by the microwave in just a few minutes. Such characteristics, together with field-induced decrystallization, offer a novel and simple approach for the synthesis of nanostructured compounds, which can have practical implications in ceramic technologies and thermoelectric materials.}, number={45}, journal={ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES}, author={Malhotra, Abhishek and Hosseini, Mahshid and Zaferani, Sadeq Hooshmand and Hall, Michael and Vashaee, Daryoosh}, year={2020}, month={Nov}, pages={50941–50952} } @misc{nozariasbmarz_collins_dsouza_polash_hosseini_hyland_liu_malhotra_ortiz_mohaddes_et al._2020, title={Review of wearable thermoelectric energy harvesting: From body temperature to electronic systems}, volume={258}, ISSN={["1872-9118"]}, url={https://publons.com/publon/30967440/}, DOI={10.1016/j.apenergy.2019.114069}, abstractNote={Global demand for battery-free metrics and health monitoring devices has urged leading research agencies and their subordinate centers to set human energy harvesting and self-powered wearable technologies as one of their primary research objectives.

A detailed analysis of the interaction of the electromagnetic wave with the material showed that a strong ponderomotive force preferentially separates the constituent phases via an enhanced mass transport process amplified particularly near the interfaces. The proof of concept experiments showed that the material, whether it is a solid-solution of two elements, e.g. (Si1-xGex), or two compounds, e.g. (Bi2Te3)1-x(Sb2Te3)x, decomposes into the constituent phases when radiated by a polarized microwave field. The dissolution happens in the bulk of the material and even below the melting point. The degree of decomposition can be controlled by radiation parameters to produce structures composed of gradient phases of the solid-solution. This offers a novel and facile method for synthesizing gradient composite and complex structures for application in thermoelectricity as well as fabrication of core-shell structures for catalysts and biomedical applications.}, journal={ACTA MATERIALIA}, author={Nozariasbmarz, Amin and Hosseini, Mahshid and Vashaee, Daryoosh}, year={2019}, month={Oct}, pages={85–92} }
