A functional nucleic acid-based amplification machine was designed for simple and label-free ultrasensitive colorimetric biosensing of microRNA (miRNA). The amplification machine was composed of a complex of trigger template and C-rich DNA modified molecular beacon (MB) and G-rich DNA (GDNA) as the probe, polymerase and nicking enzyme, and a dumbbell-shaped amplification template. The presence of...
This paper compares the selectivity and discusses the response mechanisms of various surface-modified, single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT)-coated sensor arrays for the detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Two types of sensor platforms, chemiresistor and quartz crystal microbalance (QCM), were used to probe the resistance changes and absorption masses during vapor sensing. Four sensing...
We report the design, fabrication, and evaluation of a μ-preconcentrator chip that utilizes an array of solid-phase microextraction (SPME) needles coated with in-situ-grown carbon adsorbent film. The structure of the SPME needle (diameter=100μm, height=250μm) array inside the sampling chamber was fabricated using a deep reactive-ion etching (DRIE) process to enhance the attachable surface area for...
An electrochemical immunosensor for detection of neuron specific enolase (NSE) was designed by immobilizing NSE covalently functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes (NSE-SWNTs) on a glassy carbon electrode. The NSE-SWNTs not only enhanced electrochemical signal but also presented abundant antigen domains for competitive immunological recognition to anti-NSE primary antibody and then gold nanoprobes...
Immunofiltration assay for mycotoxins in which nitrocellulose membrane (NCM) was used as a support and enzyme was used as the label has been developed since the late 1980s. As colloidal gold is a good labeling substance that can accelerate antibody–antigen reaction which result can be read directly by naked eyes, the colloidal gold particles could replace the enzyme to be labeled to antibody in aflatoxin...
A method based on solid-phase microextraction and gas chromatography flame photometric detector for the determination of organophosphorous pesticides (OPPs) in aqueous samples was described. Five kinds of commercially available fibers-7, 30 and 100 μm PDMS, 85 μm PA and 65 μm PDMS-DVB-were compared and 100 μm PDMS and 85 μm PA were the most sensitive fiber coatings for the analytes. The extraction...
