Sensitivity Enhancement Using Parametric Amplification in a Resonant Sensing Array
In this work we describe the parametric amplification of a multi-degree of freedom resonant chemical mass sensing array. We experimentally demonstrate that parametric forcing can be employed to increase the effective resonant quality factor of the array structure via an applied base motion containing the appropriate frequency content. Applying parametric forcing in this manner is simple and ali...
متن کاملMillion-Fold Electrical Conductivity Enhancement in Fe2(DEBDC) versus Mn2(DEBDC) (E = S, O)
Reaction of FeCl2 and H4DSBDC (2,5-disulfhydrylbenzene-1,4-dicarboxylic acid) leads to the formation of Fe2(DSBDC), an analogue of M2(DOBDC) (MOF-74, DOBDC(4-) = 2,5-dihydroxybenzene-1,4-dicarboxylate). The bulk electrical conductivity values of both Fe2(DSBDC) and Fe2(DOBDC) are ∼6 orders of magnitude higher than those of the Mn(2+) analogues, Mn2(DEBDC) (E = O, S). Because the metals are of t...
متن کاملSensitivity enhancement for colorimetric glucose assays on whole blood by on-chip beam-guidance.
In this paper, we present a novel concept for optical beam-guidance to significantly enhance the sensitivity of colorimetric assays by extending the optical path length through the detection cell which linearly impacts the resulting attenuation of a probe beam according to the law of Beer-Lambert. In our setup, the incident probe beam is deflected by 90( composite function) into the chip plane ...
متن کاملArginine and the Hofmeister Series: the role of ion-ion interactions in protein aggregation suppression.
L-Arginine hydrochloride is a very important aggregation suppressor for which there has been much attention given regarding elucidating its mechanism of action. Little consideration, however, has been given toward other salt forms besides chloride, even though the counterion likely imparts a large influence per the Hofmeister Series. Here, we report an in depth analysis of the role the counteri...
متن کاملSensitivity and Specificity of Nucleic Acid Sequence-Based Amplification Method for Diagnosis of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis
Abstract Background and Objective: Culture, microscopic method is a gold standard method for identification of Lishmania parasite. The use of Molecular methods such as RT- PCR compared to microscopic methods has a higher sensitivity and specificity however, it is not widely used due to its expensive equipment and the time requested. The use of nucleic acid sequence based amplification (NASBA) ...
