2. 1. Heterogeneous Technologies for Microfluidic Systems

   Author : Gunjana Sharma; Klas Hjort; Sami Franssila; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : actuator; biosensor; fluidic circuit board; heterogeneous technology; ion track; microfluidic; pump; stainless steel; super-hydrophobic; valve; Viton; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot mikrosystemteknik; Engineering Science with specialization in Microsystems Technology;

   Abstract : In this thesis, conventional and unconventional technologies have been studied and combined in order to make heterogeneous microfluidics with potential advantages, especially in biological applications. Many conventional materials, like silicon, glass, thermoplastic polymers, polyimide and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) have been combined in building heterogeneous microfluidic devices or demonstrators.

4. 2. MEMS Interfaces for Bioanalysis Systems

   Author : Thomas Frisk; Göran Stemme; Andreas Hierlemann; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; microfluidic interfacing; microfluidics; µTAS; sample transfer; biosensor; electronic nose; surface tension; quartz crystal microbalance; QCM; narcotics detection; Electronic measurement and instrumentation; Elektronisk mät- och apparatteknik;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with various aspects of using open microfluidic interfaces. Three specific areas of application are studied. The first is air-to-liquid interfacing in biosensors with possibilities for component inte­gration. A micromachined interface for airborne sample-to-liquid and droplet-to-liquid adsorption is discussed. READ MORE

5. 3. Sensor Systems for Bioprocess Monitoring

   Author : Helena Lidén; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; on-line; pattern recognition; gas sensor array; electronic nose; monosaccharides; ethanol; biosensor; carbon paste electrode; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

   Abstract : Two different detection methods for on-line monitoring of substrates and products in ethanol fermentations have been studied. Amperometric biosensors were developed for use as detectors in flow injection or liquid chromatographic (LC) systems. READ MORE

6. 4. CRISPRi/a for investigating yeast tolerance to inhibitors in lignocellulosic hydrolysates

   Author : Ibai Lenitz Etxaburu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Lignocellulosic hydrolysates; ChIP-exo; Screening; Biosensor; Formic acid; Competitive growth assay; Yeast; Tolerance; CRISPRi a; Acetic acid;

   Abstract : Saccharomyces cerevisiae has immense potential as a cell factory in various biotechnological processes where biomass from agricultural industry residues is used as feedstock. Nonetheless, the inhibitors released during the pretreatment of the biomass makes lignocellulosic hydrolysates a challenging substrate for microorganisms. READ MORE

7. 5. Differential Magnetic Biosensor using HTS SQUID Gradiometer

   Author : Sobhan Sepehri; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; high-Tc SQUID; magnetic bioassay; diagnostics; RCA; microfluidics; magnetic nanoparticle; point-of-care; rolling circle amplification; differential ac susceptibility; biosensor;

   Abstract : A fundamental tool for containing an epidemic outbreak and mitigating its effects is early diagnostics. Currently, most of the diagnostic tests are performed by trained staff in centralized labs, which are expensive and time-consuming to establish and operate. Lack of access to such facilities could have devastating effects. READ MORE
