Nanosphere lithography coupled with reactive ion etching has been used to synthesize hexagonal ordered arrays of Au-Ag bimetallic semi-nanoshells be as plasmonic biosensors. The degree lateral interaction between adjacent can controlled by tailoring the time in order boost global properties through formation near-field hot-spots, which turn improve sensitivity To test efficiency proposed system a biosensor, we an established protocol for detection biomolecules (local sensitivity), based on...
The Avidin-Nucleic-Acids-Nano-Assembly (ANANAS) is a kind of soft poly avidin nanoparticle originating from the high affinity interaction between and nucleic acids. In this work we investigated possibility transforming ANANAS cores into stoichiometrically controlled multifunctional nanoparticles through "one-pot" procedure, measured in quantitative way their ability to as reagents for enhanced immunodiagnostic detection. Initially, loading capability biotinylated proteins different nature....
The simple observation of breathing rate (BR) remains the first and often most sensitive marker acute respiratory dysfunction. In fact, there is evidence that drastic changes in BR are a predictive indicator adverse events (i.e. cardiac arrest). aim this study to develop camera-based technology may provide near-continuous estimation considering effect respiration on video-PPG (vPPG).The has been tested two different experimental settings, including controlled more challenging scenarios with...
Objective: To determine the effect of sandblasting before and after sintering on surface roughness zirconia micro-tensile bond strength a pressable veneering ceramic to zirconia. Methods: Pre-sintered blocks (IPS e.max ZirCAD, Ivoclar Vivadent) were divided into control group (CTR, no treatment) four test groups three specimens each: Pre-S-30, Pre-S-50, Pre-S-110 sandblasted with 30µm SiO2, 50µm Al2O3 110µm particles respectively, sintering, Post-S-30 was SiO2 sintering. For each treatment,...
Drug delivery systems based on synthetic polymers are widely employed in the treatment of several pathologies. In particular, use implantable devices able to release one or more active principles a topic site with controlled kinetic represents an important improvement this field. However, kinetic, that could be affected by different parameters, like polymer composition chemical nature and initial drug loading, problems related implantation systems. study, acrylic membranes macromolecular...
Bioartificial biodegradable materials were prepared mixing chitosan (CHI) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), then manufactured as films, finally cross-linked with glutaraldehyde (GTA), both in the absence presence of edible hexa-alcohol sorbitol (SOR), a plasticizer. The release components into water was tested by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC); no CHI scarce PVA found. uptake measuring swelling materials, after incubating them for 20 h an atmosphere saturated vapor at 37°C....
We designed and experimentally realized the prototype for a bio-recognition device based on Grating Coupled Surface Plasmon Resonance (GCSPR) which can find wide range of applications detection chemical biological species. A sinusoidal grating (period 500 nm peak-to-valley height 40 nm) was by Laser Interference Lithography (LIL) replicated onto polymeric resin film. After substrate coating with Cr/Au film thio-mPEO (Mw 5000) layer medium thickness 4 deposited plasmonic surface. The SPR...
We report the design of an integrated platform for on-chip electrical transduction surface plasmon resonance supported by a nanostructured metal grating. The latter is fabricated on active area GaAs/AlGaAs photo-HEMT and simultaneously works as electronic gate device. gold plasmonic crystal has V-groove profile been designed numerical optical simulations. By showing that models accurately reproduce phototransistors experimental response, we demonstrate proposed architecture suitable...

The thermal patterns that arise in a channel flow are analyzed experimentally.The experimental measurements carried on by means of non steady application the Heated Thin Foil technique and scanning wall temperature an infrared camera.The data processing is made algorithms similar to ones used Particle Image Velocimetry.Different test conditions were performed comparison between them presented, showing maps, velocity histograms autocorrelation coefficients.
This study aims to develop a restorative material having such mechanical and adhesive properties that it can be used both as reconstruction luting cement. The experimental core build-up composite (CBC) was derived from self-adhesive cement by the modification of its chemical formula, requiring use dedicated dentin ceramic primers. zirconia were analyzed with micro-Shear Bond Strength test (mSBS). flexural strength test. results compared those obtained for other commercially available cements...
