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...

Automatically Detecting Affect in Computer-based Learning Environments: A Systematic Literature Review
DownloadSpring 2023
Affect detection is increasingly viewed as an essential component of computer-based learning systems because it aims to improve learner outcomes by adapting to the learner’s affect. However, most computer-based learning environments used across formal and informal educational contexts do not...

Bacteriophages as antimicrobial agents against bacterial contaminants in yeast fermentation processes
DownloadFall 2013
Bacterial contaminants are ubiquitous in yeast fermentation processes for biofuel production. In general, they compete with yeasts for nutrients, reducing overall production yield. The present project investigates the application of bacteriophages (phages), viruses infecting and killing...

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...

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...

Fall 2012
Fluorescent proteins (FPs) are indispensible biochemical tools. The concerted efforts of protein engineers have produced FPs spanning the visible colour spectrum. This wide variety of FPs has greatly facilitated the development of FP-based biosensors. However, researchers rely on relatively few...
