This paper presents flexible electronics with a bio-compatible material interface for bio-signal monitoring applications. Organic thin-film transistors (TFT) are integrated with the bio-compatible gel interface in a 1.2-μm-thick film substrate. An electrocardiogram (ECG) of a rat is amplified by an organic TFT amplifier circuit that is mounted directly on the surface of the heart. In addition t...

To address the challenges in critical care monitoring, we present a multi-modality bio-signal modeling and analysis modeling framework for real-time human state classification and prediction. The novel bioinformatic framework is developed to solve the human state classification and prediction issues from two aspects: a) achieve 1:1 mapping between the bio-signal and the human state via discrimi...

Healthcare providers are facing growing challenges in patient diagnostics and information gathering due to inadequate infrastructure and insufficient number of healthcare professionals to perform such operations. The traditional way of patient information gathering is largely based on text and dependent on self-report surveys and infrequent doctor consultations. The proposed bio-sensor based fr...

Over the last 10 years, fluorescent semiconductor QD (quantum dot)-aptamer conjugates have emerged as an efficient platform for cancer imaging and therapy in animal models and in vitro. In addition, these conjugates show potential in a wide range of applications in environmental monitoring, disease diagnosis, and bio-sensing. The present review represents the recent developments in QDaptamer bi...

The paper focuses on bio®lms subject to turbulent ̄ow and high liquid velocity (of the order of 1 m s) which can be found in heat exchangers, water distribution systems and in some wastewater reactors. An overall model describing bio®lm development is presented, which includes the effects of biomass detachment due to the hydrodynamic forces. A methodology for estimating substrate consumption fr...

The term bioremediation describes biological machinery of recycling wastes to make them harmless and useful to some extent. Bioremediation is the most proficient tool to manage the polluted environment and recover contaminated river water.  Bioremediation is very much involved in the degradation, eradication, restriction, or reclamation varied chemical and physical hazardous substances from the...

one of the new technologies in the field of health is wearable biosensor, which provides vital signs monitoring of patients, athletes,premature infants, children, psychiatric patients, people who need long-term care, elderly, and people in impassable regions far from health and medical services. the aim of this study was to explain features and applications of wearable biosensors in medical ser...
