Conductive Polymer Microelectrodes for on-chip measurement of transmitter release from living cells

Tylsgaard Larsen S., Matteucci M., Taboryski R., Technical University of Denmark, DK

In this work we present an all-polymer chip for measuring exocytotic release from neuronal cells using electrochemical sensing at a conductive polymer microelectrode. This chip combines several novel aspects, such as the use of conductive [...]

Biomedical Applications of Modified Carbon Glassy Electrode Sensor with Nanoparticles and Dendrimers

Leung S.W., Wang Y., Gu H., Lai J.C.K., Idaho State University, US

In our previous reports, we studied the development of biosensor platform that are capable of measuring biometabolites and environmental sensitive species, such as peroxide and nitrate/nitrate, to concentration in the order of ppb (parts per [...]

Electrochemiluminescent sensor for clinical analysis based on Carbon Nanotube electrodes

Sanginario A., Demarchi D., Giorcelli M., Castellino M., Politecnico di Torino, IT

Presented application is based on the use of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for biomolecular analysis using electrochemiluminescence (ECL) detection technique. For this purpose we have grown self standing cylinder-shaped blocks of Multi wall CNTs (MWCNTs) by [...]

A Novel Anode Electrode for Direct Borohydride Fuel Cell

Kim K-J, Bernas R., Miley G.H., Luo N., Yang X., University of Illinois, US

As part of the development of a portable fuel cell using direct sodium Borohydride fuel, deposition methods of the catalysis on the diffusion layer have been studied. In earlier studies catalyst deposition onto a porous [...]
