Facile synthesis of graphene and its application in the preparation of L-Asparginase based sensor obtained from Bacillus cereus strain for the detection of leukemia
The current study presents the development of a novel, diagnostic and cost-effective L-Asparaginase based biosensor conjugated to graphene for monitoring asparagines in leukemic patients. L-Asparaginase (E.C. 3.5.1.1) acts as an anti-leukemic agent by inhibiting the [...]
Effect of silver coated carbon nanotubes on metabolically essential gene expression and outer membrane protein profile of Escherichia coli
Antibiotic resistance acquired by food borne pathogens such as E. coli has become a global concern. Recently, nanoparticles have been shown to be effective alternatives to antibiotics. Specifically, silver coated carbon nanotubes (AgCNTs) have been [...]
Analytical sensing platforms with inkjet printed electrodes
Medical diagnostics for the determination and monitoring of the health condition of patients, sportsmen but also normal persons represents an important market with increasing opportunities for sensor platform development, production and applications. For instance, amperometric [...]
The Detection of PETN Using a Bulk Single Wall Carbon Nanotube/Peptide System
The present research work investigates the novel detection of pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN), a high powered explosive, using peptide surface functionalized single wall carbon nanotubes. Here, through the use of a phage display technique and enzyme-linked [...]
The OsteoAccess System – Low-Force, Controlled Angled Bone Access for Bone Biopsy and Bone Marrow Aspiration
Mulvihill M.L., Ashuckian E.D., Greaser J.K., Hartung K.M. Erdley H., Bagwell R.B., Actuated Medical Inc, US
Many medical procedures and diagnostics require penetrating hard cortical bone. For example, biopsies and aspirates taken from within bone are used to diagnose a wide range of cancer and blood diseases. Sampling locations can include [...]
High efficiency capture of multiple bacterial species by microfluidic dielectrophoresis filter
Fluid-Screen, Inc. presents a bacterial concentration and filtration method based on dielectrophoresis (DEP). DEP has been known to induce particle motion since the 1960’s. However, yields and reproducibility have consistently been low in practice, reducing [...]
Nanobiomimetic Memristor/Memcapacitor Devices Used for Direct and Reagent-less Detection of Sub pM Acetyl Coenzyme A in Milks
Acetyl co-enzyme A (AcCoA) is a leading substrate in a large variety of enzyme-catalyzed reactions, such as for choline acetyltransferase and acetylcholinesterase. They are critical to energy production, metabolism, memory, cell proliferation and early childhood [...]
Nanobiomimetic Memristor/memcapacitors’ Function as a Voltage Sensor for Direct and Reagent-free Detection of sub pg Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in Milks for Children
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a common endotoxin from E. Coli bacteria, and is the major source causing infection diseases over 20 million people worldwide. Lack of sensitivity and high imprecision from common commercial test methods are [...]
Research on human-computer interaction technology based on electrical detection technology
Human-computer interaction (HCI) technology has emerged as a crucial dimension of computer science and information industry. HCI with keyboard and mouse has started to lose ground, as people tend to harness the power of body [...]
