An examination of linking and blocking procedures for use in deflection cantilever array-based protein detection
DownloadFall 2011
In this project common linking and blocking procedures were examined for use in multiplexed deflection cantilever array-based detection of proteins. A human interferon gamma (INF-γ) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the linking and blocking...

Carbon-on-Gold Films and Spontaneous Adsorption of Aryldiazonium Salts for Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensing
DownloadFall 2021
Over the past decades, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technology has gained popularity as a powerful analytical technique for the study of biomolecular interactions and medical diagnostics. This is made possible thanks to the well-established gold-thiolate chemistry. However, the limited...

Combination of AC electrothermal and Dielectrophoresis realized by 3D Electrodes to Concentrate Particles
Download2022-06-01
Fathy, Jino, Wang, Ziying, Lai, Yongjun
In this paper, a particle microconcentrator is designed and simulated that works by combining the AC electrothermal (ACET) and Dielectrophoresis (DEP) forces. The microconcentrator consists of a PMMA channel with copper electrodes on the walls and bottom of the channel. On each side of the...

Control of Listeria monocytogenes and Heat-Resistant Escherichia coli on Vacuum-Packaged Beef
DownloadSpring 2012
Novel methods to control Listeria monocytogenes and Escherichia coli on vacuum-packaged raw beef were investigated. Bacteriocin-negative Lactobacillus sakei FUA3058 and bacteriocin-positive Carnobacterium maltaromaticum UAL307 were tested as biopreservatives, alone or in combination with...

Development of a Multisectorial Electroactive Nanowell Platform for Selective Single-Cell Sorting and Quantification
DownloadSpring 2022
The rapid isolation of specific rare target cells is of rising importance in current targeted patient treatment plans. Common cell sorting approaches such as stream-based dielectrophoresis (DEP) based cell sorters are limited by their spatial dimensions as only a number of cell types...

Development of an optical biosensor based on Mach-Zehnder Interferometry for detection of Listeria monocytogenes
DownloadFall 2013
Label-free optical biosensors are widely used for the detection of pathogens due to their low-cost, real-time detection and high sensitivity. A Mach-Zehnder Interferometer (MZI) based biosensor has been developed for the detection of gram-positive bacteria, Listeria monocytogenes. An extensive...
