Abstract We demonstrated an ultra-sensitive terahertz virus detection method combined with virus-sized gold nanogaps filled Al 2 O 3 . Large-area high-density 20 nm-gap rectangular loop structures, containing a resonant frequency in the range, were fabricated on 4-inch wafer using atomic layer lithography. When target viruses 60 nm diameter located nanogaps, we observed significant redshift of ...

We present a low cost, easy to fabricate biosensor, which can quickly and accurately detect Salmonella typhimurium. This study also compares the advantages of the microfluidic biosensor over a nonmicrofluidic biosensor. High density interdigitated electrode array was used to detect Salmonella cells inside a microfluidic chip. Monoclonal anti-Salmonella antibodies were allowed to be immobilized ...

Biosensors are analytical devices, which use biological interactions to provide either qualitative or quantitative results. They are extensively employed in many fields such as clinical diagnosis and biomedicine, military applications, anti-terrorism, farm, garden and veterinary analysis, process control, fermentation control and analysis, pharmaceutical and drug analysis, food and drink produc...

We have demonstrated the essential nanogap effects on surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) signals obtained from two diagonally aligned gold nanoparticles with several nanometre separations, which were precisely fabricated on a glass substrate. This is the first proof of principle for extracting the light localization effects on SERS due to the formation of nanogaps from experimentally obse...

In this research, an enzyme modified electrode has been produced during the electropolymerization of aniline through incorporation of sulfite oxidase into a conducting polymer. Then the bioelectrochemical response of resulted sulfite biosensor was investigated at different experimental conditions. Study of  the stability of the resulted sulfite biosensor revealed that formation of a passive...

In this paper, the numerical design and simulate a biosensor to detect tumors and cancerous tissues by using metamaterial structures in the microwave regime are presented. The presented structure consists of a microstrip transmission line and a split ring resonator (SRR) that form a bandpass filter and has a unique resonance frequency. Given that cancerous tissues have larger volumes of water t...

Hyperpolarized 129Xe NMR spectroscopy can detect the presence of specific low-concentration biomolecular analytes by means of a xenon biosensor that consists of a water-soluble, targeted cryptophane-A cage that encapsulates the xenon. In this work, we use the prototypical biotinylated xenon biosensor to determine the relationship between the molecular composition of the xenon biosensor and the ...
