A Rapidly Reconfigurable, Universal Point-of-care Test Platform
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper reports the development of a new rapidly reconfigurable, universal Point-of-Care Test (POCT) system based on Siloam’s Optimiser microfluidic platform technology. The key benefit of this system is the ability to develop/validate assays using conventional lab-automation tools and rapidly adopting new assays for POCT use. A wide-dynamic range beta-HCG (total) 15 minute assay with operating range of 5 IU/L to 68,500 IU/L and a highsensitive cardiac Troponin-I (HS cTnI) 20 minute assay with detection limit of 0.04 ng/mL are demonstrated as case studies for the Universal POCT system.

New Performance Indices and Workspace Analysis of Reconfigurable Hyper-Redundant Robotic Arms
In this paper, we introduce new performance indices to characterize the workspace of reconfigurable hyper-redundant robotic arms. These indices are then used to analyze the workspace of a type of hyper-redundant robotic arm using as modules lower mobility parallel platforms. The modules of the reconfigurable robotic arm are the three-legged translational universal–prismatic–universal (UPU) and ...

متن کاملExploring the Capabilities of Reconfigurable Hardware for OFDM-Based Wlans
In this paper, the potential of reconfigurable hardware in wireless communication systems is evaluated. As most of the published works aim at the usage of reconfigurable architectures as a universal platform for different standards, the optimization capabilities of reconfiguration techniques for hardware modules within one standard are often not considered. This work focuses on the hardware opt...
