Quartz crystal microbalance based histidine sensor

Fluorous-based carbohydrate quartz crystal microbalance.

Fluorous chemistry has brought many applications from catalysis to separation science, from supramolecular materials to analytical chemistry. However, fluorous-based quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) has not been reported so far. In the current paper, fluorous interaction has been firstly utilized in QCM, and carbohydrate-protein interaction and carbohydrate-carbohydrate interaction have been d...

Multichannel monolithic quartz crystal microbalance gas sensor array.

Multichannel Monolithic Quartz Crystal Microbalance (MQCM), in which an array of electrodes is fabricated on a monolithic quartz wafer, is a very attractive approach for miniaturization using Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems(MEMS) technology for high throughput chemical or biological sensor systems. In this paper, we demonstrate and validate a monolithic QCM sensor array for gas detections. The...

Noise Measurement Setup for Quartz Crystal Microbalance

Quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) is a high sensitive chemical sensor which has found widespread spectrum of applications. There are several mechanisms that are related to fluctuation phenomena. Since the aim of our research is oriented to study the sensitivity and influence of different kind of noises on sensor resolution, we modified an existing method to measure the small frequency fluctuati...

Quartz Crystal Microbalance Based Hydrophobic Nanosensor for Lysozyme Detection

A quartz crystal microbalance-based molecular ruler for biopolymers.

We developed a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) based molecular ruler that measures the length of surface immobilized, hydrated biopolymers (DNA and proteins). These biopolymers acted as stakes that solidified surrounding liquid at high frequency vibration in QCM measurements, which led to a simple linear frequency-thickness relation.
