Superhydrophobic Manipulation of DNA

Superhydrophobicity refers to surfaces on which drops assume a quasi-spherical shape and a high contact angle (more than 150°). This well-known phenomenon occurs in nature and we can take advantage of this principle fabricating bio-inspired superhydrophobic surfaces constituted of ordinate arrays of silicon micro-pillars.
