1. On the elements of E-textiles : Fabrication and characterisation of textile routing and electrodes
Abstract : “Smart textile” as a notion was demarcated approximately 25 years ago, leading to an enthusiastic hype around the research. Both academic efforts and members of the maker community developed prototypes and artistic creations that incorporated smart features into textiles. READ MORE

2. Novel reagentless electrodes for biosensing
Abstract : Analytical chemical information is needed in all areas of human activity including health care, pharmacology, food control and environmental chemistry. Today one of the main challenges in analytical chemistry is the development of methods to perform accurate and sensitive rapid analysis and monitoring of analytes in ‘real’ samples. READ MORE

3. Microfluidics at High Pressures : Understanding, Sensing, and Control
Abstract : This thesis explores understanding, sensing, and control in high-pressure microfluidics. The high-pressure regime allows fluids to be forced through narrow channels at substantial speed and creates conditions for fluids of high density and low viscosity—features desired in flow-based chemical analyses.

4. On the Feasibility of Using Textile Electrodes for Electrical Bioimpedance Measurements
Abstract : The application of textile electrodes has been widely studied for biopotential recordings, especially for monitoring cardiac activity. Commercially available applications, such as the Adistar T-shirt and the Numetrex Cardioshirt, have shown good performance for heart rate monitoring and are available worldwide. READ MORE

5. Electroosmotic pumps with electrochemically active electrodes
Abstract : Electrokinetic phenomena, motion caused by an applied electric field, can be used to separate molecules based on charge as in capillary electrophoresis, or pump liquids with electroosmosis. As microfluidic devices are becoming more advanced, involving multiple stages (sequential reactions) and requiring smaller amounts of reagent, the demand for precise fluid control and integrated electrodes increases.
