We report on the design and characterization of the building blocks of a single-chip wireless chemical sensor fabricated with a commercial complementary metal-oxide-silicon (CMOS) technology, which includes two types of transducers for impedimetric measurements (4-electrode array and two interdigitated electrodes), instrumentation circuits, and a metal coil and circuits for inductive power and ...

The aim of this work was to study the electrochemical behavior of gold electrode which was modified with p-tert-butylcalix[6]arene membrane and this in the presence of different nickel ions based concentrations in order to form a nickel electrochemical sensor. For that, impedance-spectroscopy characteristics have been investigated. The obtained results were then modeled by appropriate equivalen...

We present ultracompact three-dimensional tubular structures integrating Au-based electrodes as impedimetric microsensors for the in-flow determination of mono- and divalent ionic species and HeLa cells. The microsensors show an improved performance of 2 orders of magnitude (limit of detection = 0.1 nM for KCl) compared to conventional planar conductivity detection systems integrated in microfl...

The Lab-on-a-Chip (LoC) described here is designed for the complex analysis of cytotoxic effects of chemical substances imposed on human keratinocytes. This LoC operating in real-time will have promising applications in cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. All parameters and conditions on the LoC were optimized with respect to practical aspects under semi-automated conditions. The system inc...

The optimization of biosensing efficiency on a diamond platform depends on the successful coupling of biomolecules on the surface, and also on effective signal transduction in the biorecognition events. In terms of biofunctionalization of diamond surfaces, surface electrochemical studies of diamond modified with undecylenic acid (UA), with and without headgroup protection, were performed. The d...

Electrochemical sensors for multiple analytes were the first scitifically proposed as well as commersialised biosensors. Electrochemical biosensors have been studied for a long time. Presently, typical platform of transducers based on semiconductors and screen printed electrodes is in practice for construction of biosensors. Among all biocomponents enzymes or enzyme labeled antibodies are prese...
