Quantitative detection of small molecule/DNA complexes employing a force-based and label-free DNA-microarray.
Force-based ligand detection is a promising method to characterize molecular complexes label-free at physiological conditions. Because conventional implementations of this technique, e.g., based on atomic force microscopy or optical traps, are low-throughput and require extremely sensitive and sophisticated equipment, this approach has to date found only limited application. We present a low-co...
متن کاملForce-Based Label Number Maximization
We present a force-based simulated annealing algorithm to heuristically solve the NP-hard label number maximization problem lnm: Given a set of rectangular labels, each of which belongs to a point-feature in the plane, the task is to find a labeling for a largest subset of the labels. A labeling is a placement such that none of the labels overlap and each is placed at its point-feature. The abs...
متن کاملLabel-free cell separation using a tunable magnetophoretic repulsion force.
This paper describes a new label-free cell separation method using a magnetic repulsion force resulting from the magnetic susceptibility difference between cells and a paramagnetic buffer solution in a microchannel. The difference in the magnetic forces acting on different-sized cells is enhanced by adjusting the magnetic susceptibility of the surrounding medium, which depends on the concentrat...
متن کاملA novel label-free cocaine assay based on aptamer-wrapped single-walled carbon nanotubes
Objective(s): This paper describes a selective and sensitive biosensor based on the dissolution and aggregation of aptamer wrapped single-walled carbon nanotubes. We report on the direct detection of aptamer–cocaine interactions, namely between a DNA aptamer and cocaine molecules based on near-infrared absorption at λ807. Materials and Methods: First a DNA aptamer recognizing cocaine was non-co...
متن کاملDesign and Construction of a Novel Tactile Sensor for Measuring Contact-Force, Based on Piezoelectric Effect
In this paper, design and construction of a tactile sensor for measuring contact-force is presented. Mechanism of measuring contact-force in this tactile sensor is based on impedance changing of piezoelectric crystal and voltage of different points in circuit as a result of applying force on the crystal. By considering a specific point in the circuit and recording the changes of its voltage, ma...
