Functionalized Bead Based Microchip for Immunoassay and Virus Immuno-affinity Chromatography
DownloadFall 2014
We demonstrate the functionalization of a highly ordered porous molecular sieving matrix created by colloidal self-assembly (CSA) of 2 micrometer diameter silica particles in microfluidic chips, for highly efficient immuno-capture of viruses. By tuning the particle size, with appropriate surface...

Recently, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have been used in many monitoring applications, e.g., environment monitoring. A WSN consists of a set of nodes, each having one or more sensors to measure a phenomena. Nodes are connected to each other using wireless radio communications. Typically, there...
