Rapid Chemical Separation for Bk

Rapid evaporation-driven chemical pre-concentration and separation on paper.

Airflow-enhanced evaporation is investigated as a method for rapid chemical preconcentration on a thin porous substrate. The mechanism is described by combining 1D models of capillary rise, chromatography, and pervaporation concentration. It is shown that the effective length of the column can be shorter than its actual length, allowing concentrate to be held at a stagnation point and then rele...

Bacteriophage-based nanoprobes for rapid bacteria separation.

The lack of practical methods for bacterial separation remains a hindrance for the low-cost and successful development of rapid detection methods from complex samples. Antibody-tagged magnetic particles are commonly used to pull analytes from a liquid sample. While this method is well-established, improvements in capture efficiencies would result in an increase of the overall detection assay pe...

CMOS Image Sensor for Rapid Chemical Detection

Toxic chemicals are one of the major global issues due to their adverse effect to human health and biosystems. This present study demonstrated a CMOS image sensor based highly sensitive colorimetric sensing system for the detection various pH ranges (pH1 to 13). For the reaction, pH indicator blended with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and titanium (TiO2) nanoparticle; and developed the thin hydrogel ...
