Individually, advances in microelectronics and biology transformed the way we live our lives. However, there remain few examples which electronics have been interfaced to create synergistic capabilities. We believe are two major challenges integration of biological components into microelectronic systems: (i) assembly at an electrode address, (ii) communication between assembled underlying electrode. Chitosan possesses a unique combination properties meet these serve as effective bio-device...

The data acquired can be both displayed via dedicated smartphone application or computer interface, allowing users either to gather view on the move set up continuous experiment. All design software files are open-source intended device easily replicable further customizable suit specific applications. assembled measure absorption in wavelength range from 450...
The use of electric fields in combination with small doses antibiotics for enhanced treatment biofilms is termed the 'bioelectric effect' (BE). Different mechanisms action AC and DC have been reported literature over last two decades. In this work, we conduct first study on correlation between electrical energy efficacy bioelectric effect Escherichia coli K-12 W3110 biofilms.A thorough was performed through application alternating (AC), direct (DC) superimposed (SP) potentials different...
Abstract Designing functional materials as electrode coatings to transduce high‐quality information about redox molecules in biofluids is crucial for developing the next‐generation medical devices. Rapidly analyzing neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) urinary levels can enable point‐of‐care testing neuroendocrine tumors. A novel sensing electrodes array modified with biopolymer chitosan and electrocatalytic carbon nanotube films that generate cross‐reactive electrochemical signals from complex...
Here, we integrated two key technologies within a microfluidic system, an electrokinetic preconcentration of analytes by ion Concentration Polarization (CP) and local electrochemical sensors to detect the analytes, which can synergistically act significantly enhance detection signal. This synergistic combination, offering both decoupled coupled operation modes for continuous monitoring, was validated intensified fluorescent intensities CP-preconcentrated associated enhanced response using...
Electrochemical sensors based on antibody-antigen recognition events are commonly used for the rapid, label-free, and sensitive detection of various analytes. However, parameters at bioelectronic interface, i.e., before after probe (such as an antibody) assembly onto electrode, have a dominant influence underlying performance analytes antigen). In this work, we thoroughly investigate dependence interface characteristics that not been investigated in depth: antibody density electrode's...
The field of in-vivo electrochemical sensors is envisioned to greatly transform point-of-care diagnostic devices and bio-chip sensing technology. However, these sensors' sensitivity selectivity suffer from fundamental challenges that deteriorate the output signal underlying information. In analytical chemistry, term 'chemometrics' involves utilizing advanced multivariate models signals; this shifts complexity analysis physical domain digital processing domain. These methods can help...
While clozapine (CLZ) is the most effective antipsychotic drug for schizophrenia treatment, it remains underused. In order to understand barriers of frequent blood draws white cell counts (WBCs) and levels, we developed a psychiatrist survey began an integrative approach designing point-of-care device that could eventually have real-time monitoring with immediate results.We ascertained related CLZ management acceptance possible solutions by sending anonymous physicians in psychiatric...

To address movement toward spatially resolving cell culture, we developed sensory system capable electro-addressing location...
Antipsychotic clozapine is the most effective medication currently available for schizophrenia. However, dramatically underutilized due to its harsh side effects that are not effectively monitored. By continuously monitoring blood levels, such as use of an implantable glucometer, which has transformed diabetes management, treatment can be optimized and will minimized. Currently, none methods detection show ability repeatedly measure in whole without pretreatment steps. Here we propose using...
Within the gastrointestinal tract, mucosal layer, which is physical and homeostatic barrier between microbiome host, exhibits redox molecules such as mucin oxidative species generating oxygen gradient.
