  1. 1. Amperometric biosensor-based microsystems for detecting analytes of biomedical importance

    Author : Szilveszter Gaspar; Kemiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biotechnology; microelectrodes; enzyme electrodes; SECM; biomedicine; µTAS; microsystems; biosensors; electrochemical detection; Bioteknik;

    Abstract : Monitoring in the biomedical field is rapidly emerging as the most important application area of miniaturized analytical devices. Diagnostics, disease monitoring, drug development, and medical research are important areas taking full advantage of the short response time, reduced sample consumption, low costs, and reduced power requirements of miniaturized analytical tools.

  2. 2. Miniaturized localized surface plasmon resonance biosensors

    Author : Si Chen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; colloidal lithography; Surface plasmon resonance; biosensing; electron beam lithography; single molecule; hyperspectral imaging; photo functionalization;

    Abstract : Abstract Reliable and sensitive biosensors are required for fast and accurate diagnostics. Localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPRs) in noble-metal nanoparticles possess very high refractive index sensitivity close to the metal surface and therefore constitute an attractive biosensing platform.

  3. 3. Light scattering for analysis of thermal stress induced deformation in thin metal films

    Author : Carina Kylner; KTH; []
    Keywords : thin metal films; aluminum; optical quality; hillock; initial stage; lateral distribution; thermal stress; light scattering; instrument.;

    Abstract : Today, thin film based devices are found in a wide field of applications. The main reasons are that thin film technology enables access to unique physical properties and possibilities to miniaturize devices. Thin film devices are generally described in terms such as electrical, optical and magnetical properties. READ MORE

  4. 4. Interfacing Complementary Separation Techniques with Mass Spectrometry Utilizing Electrophoresis, Nanoparticles, and Functionalized Magnetic Beads

    Author : David Malmström; Jonas Bergquist; Magnus Wetterhall; Alejandro Cifuentes; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Capillary electrophoresis (CE) has during the last two decades become more robust and been able to separate neutral analytes without compromising the downstream detection. An interesting aspect in CE compared to more commonly used high-performance liquid chromatography is the orthogonal separation mechanism provided by CE. READ MORE

  5. 5. Droplet microfluidics for single cell and nucleic acid analysis

    Author : Prem Kumar Periyannan Rajeswari; Helene Andersson Svahn; Håkan Jönsson; Martin Dufva; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Acoustophoresis; Biomarker detection; Cell behavior analysis; Cell factories; Droplet microfluidics; Droplet PCR; High throughput biology; Label-free enrichment; Single cell analysis; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : Droplet microfluidics is an emerging technology for analysis of single cells and biomolecules at high throughput. The controlled encapsulation of particles along with the surrounding microenvironment in discrete droplets, which acts as miniaturized reaction vessels, allows millions of particles to be screened in parallel.
