This paper showcases the design and development of a portable sensing system that could be used in-situ to detect the concentrations of nitrate salts present in the groundwater. Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy was employed to identify and display nitrate concentrations by using planar interdigital sensor immersed in the stream water samples. Calibration samples were prepared by serial dilution...
Presented research reports on an improved method and enhanced limits of detection for phthalates; a hazardous additive used in the production of plastics by solid-phase micro-extraction (SPME) polymer in comparison to molecularly imprinted solid-phase extraction (MISPE) polymer. The polymers were functionalized on an interdigital capacitive sensor for selective binding of phthalate molecules from...
This paper describes the design and development of a sensing system to detect the nitrate concentration by using planar interdigital sensor immersed in the water sample. Water samples were prepared containing two different salts: Sodium Nitrate (NaNO3) and Ammonium Nitrate (NH4NO3) with the concentration ranging from 0.02 PPM to 10 PPM by using the serial dilution method. The water sample was tested...
This research work describes a non-invasive and label-free immunosensing technique to detect the C-telopeptide of type-I collagen (CTX-1) by Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). A planar interdigital capacitive sensor is used to evaluate the properties of the material under test.

The world had faced a leap in the field of science and technology to a great extent in the last five decades. The fabrication of materials is done in a more miniaturized way for merging the different aspects of the working field in a single device. The paper presents a review of different technologies that had been used electronically for the last two decades for the production of substances that...
This research article reports a real-time and non-invasive detection technique for phthalates in liquids by Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS), incorporating molecular imprinting technique to introduce selectivity for the phthalate molecule in the detection system. A functional polymer with Bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) template was immobilized on the sensing surface of the inter-digital...
A study was conducted on detection and concentration measurement of estrone glucuronide (E1G), an important metabolite of the ovarian hormone estradiol, by using Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) technique. A miniature planar Inter-digital (ID) capacitive sensor fabricated on single crystal silicon substrate with sputtered gold electrodes coupled with EIS was used to measure conductivity,...
Phthalate esters are known ubiquitous teratogenic and carcinogenic environmental and food pollutants. Their detection and quantification is strictly laboratory based, time consuming, expensive and professionally handled procedure. Presented research work describes a real time non-invasive detection technique for phthalates detection in ethanol, water and drinks. The new type of inter-digital sensor...
New types of planar interdigital sensors were fabricated by photolithography and etching techniques on a Silicon/Silicon Dioxide (Si/SiO2) wafer (single side polished). The sensors were then coated with APTES (3-aminopropyltrietoxysilane) a cross linker used to bind Polymyxin B (PmB) molecules on electrodes surface. PmB is an antimicrobial peptide produced by the Gram-positive bacterium-Bacillus which...
