Identification of PCR Product by double-strand DNA Denaturation using Label-free Field-effect Transistor

Han J., Chung W., Yoo K., Shim J., Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology, KR

We demonstrate an innovative method of PCR product identification that is based on thermal denaturation of PCR products which are immobilized on microbeads using integrated BioFET. Purification step was finished simply by capturing the biotinylated [...]

Micrwave based microfluidic sensor

Tanbakuchi H., Bynum M., Brennen R., Whitener M., Agilent Technologies, US

SPR ( surface Plasmon Resonance) is an non destructive sensor capable of measuring the changes in refractive index above the gold surface (~300 nm) .The advantage of the SPR is in its capability of looking [...]

Robust Fingerprint Identification System Using Backpropagation and ART Neural Networks

Ilumoka A.A., Talluri M., Eng M., UNIVERSITY OF HARTFORD, US

This paper describes a robust minutiae-based fingerprint identification method suitable for use in small populations. System employs two serially connected neural networks in which fingerprint feature extraction is carried out by the first network – [...]

Agent Reactive Modulated Optical Reflector for Hazardous Agent Detection

Kovalev A.E., Bray M.G., Mayer T.S., Werner D.H., Pennsylvania State University, US

We demonstrate a standoff passive sensor working in the near infrared range. The device uses a platform based on dielectric and metallo-dielectric layers. The sensor demonstrated a significant change in the reflection coefficient if exposed [...]

Multi-functional Wearable Device for Heart Health and Possition Assesment

Kaminska B., Simon Fraser University, CA

In this paper we introduce a wearable device combining physiological monitoring and person’s position assessment. An accelerometer is used as a multi-functional sensor for a position and heart mechanical performance measurements, known as mechanocardiography (MCG). [...]
