Nanoparticle Crystal Based Nanofluidic Biosensor and Its Signal Enhancement
Herein we reported an approach utilizing nanoparticle crystal (NPC) as an electrical read-out biosensor to detect the human α-thrombin. We first modified the surface of the 540nm silica nanoparticles with thrombin binding aptamer (TBA1) and the minimum concentration that could be detected was around 5nM. We then used another thrombin binding aptamer (TBA2) to enhance the readout signal. The res...
متن کاملDecreasing effective nanofluidic filter size by modulating electrical double layers: separation enhancement in microfabricated nanofluidic filters.
Conventional methods for separating biomolecules are based on steric interactions between the biomolecules and randomly oriented gel fibers. The recently developed artificial molecular sieves also rely on steric interactions for separation. In this work, we present an experimental investigation of a method that can be used in these sieves to increase separation selectivity and resolution. This ...
متن کاملHigh speed nanofluidic protein accumulator.
Highly efficient preconcentration is a crucial prerequisite to the identification of important protein biomarkers with extremely low abundance in target biofluids. In this work, poly(dimethylsiloxane) microchips integrated with 10 nm polycarbonate nanopore membranes were utilized as high-speed protein accumulators. Double-sided injection control of electrokinetic fluid flow in the sample channe...
متن کاملProtein crystal perfection and its application.
Knowledge of protein crystal perfection in theory and practice is reviewed. X-ray methods of assessing perfection such as mosaicity, topography and reciprocal-space mapping are described. X-ray diffraction physics applications of protein crystals such as in Laue geometry, the large-angle oscillation technique and forming polychromatic profiles across diffraction spots are covered. Cryo- and roo...
متن کاملMicrofluidic and Nanofluidic Resistive Pulse Sensing: A Review
The resistive pulse sensing (RPS) method based on the Coulter principle is a powerful method for particle counting and sizing in electrolyte solutions. With the advancement of microand nano-fabrication technologies, microfluidic and nanofluidic resistive pulse sensing technologies and devices have been developed. Due to the unique advantages of microfluidics and nanofluidics, RPS sensors are en...
