Book Label free and Multi parametric Monitoring of Cell based Assays with Substrate embedded Sensors

Download or read book Label free and Multi parametric Monitoring of Cell based Assays with Substrate embedded Sensors written by Maximilian Oberleitner and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-09-26 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis describes novel substrate embedded physical sensors that can be used to monitor different types of cell-based assays non-invasively and label-free. The sensors described provide integrative information of the cells under study with an adaptable time resolution (ranging from milliseconds to days). This information about the dynamic cell response to chemical, physical or biological stimuli defines a new paradigm in fundamental biomedical research. The author, Maximilian Oberleitner, describes approaches in which the cells are directly grown on different sensor surfaces (gold-film electrodes, shear wave resonators or dye-doped polymer films). This approach, with the reacting cells in particularly close proximity and contact with the sensor surface, is key to a remarkable sensitivity, opening the way for a variety of new applications. This thesis not only introduces the fundamentals of each approach, but it also describes in great detail the design principles and elucidates the boundary conditions of the new sensors.

Book Multisensor Systems for Analysis of Liquids and Gases  Trends and Developments

Download or read book Multisensor Systems for Analysis of Liquids and Gases Trends and Developments written by Larisa Lvova and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowadays the application of multisensor systems for the analysis of liquids and gases is becoming more and more popular in analytical chemistry. Such systems, also known as “electronic tongues” and “electronic noses” are based on various types of chemical sensors and biosensors with different transduction principles combined with multivariate data processing protocols. These instruments received significant interest due to their simplicity, low costs and the possibility to obtain reliable chemical information from complex unresolved analytical signals. A distinct feature of electronic tongues and noses is that they can be calibrated for prediction of complex integral features in samples, like e.g. taste, odor, toxicity, geographical origin, general conformity with certain standards, etc. – the tasks that otherwise would require involvement of complex analytical instrumentation, human or animal sensory panels. In the present eBook the original research and review articles in the area of multisensor approach are collected. They dedicated to the novel sensor materials development, measuring techniques evaluation, electronics, data processing protocols and practical applications. An editorial foreword article is followed by the researches authored by leading scientists in the field of chemical sensors and artificial sensing systems. With this eBook we hope to inspire further interest and new research efforts in this exciting area.

Book Measuring Compositional and Growth Properties of Single Cells

Download or read book Measuring Compositional and Growth Properties of Single Cells written by Francisco Feijó Delgado and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The physical properties of a cell are manifestations of its most basic molecular and metabolic processes. In particular, size has been a sought metric, which can be difficult to ascertain with great resolution or for smaller organisms. The advancement of single-cell measurement techniques and the understanding of cell-to-cell variability have renewed the interest in size characterization. In addition, knowledge of how individual cells grow and coordinate their growth with the cell cycle is of fundamental interest to understanding cell development, but various approaches for describing cellular growth patterns have often reached irreconcilable conclusions. In this thesis, a highly sensitive microfabricated single-cell mass sensor - the suspended microchannel resonator - is used to demonstrate cellular growth measurements by mass accumulation for several microorganism, ranging from bacterial cells to eukaryotes and mammalian cells. From those measurements insights about cellular growth are derived, demonstrating that larger cells grow faster than smaller ones, consistent with exponential-like growth patterns and incompatible with linear growth models. Subsequently, the implementation of mechanical traps as means to optimize existing sensors is presented and the techniques are applied to the measurement of total mass, density and volume at the single-cell level. Finally, a method is introduced to quantify cellular dry mass, dry density and water content. It is based on weighing the same cell first in a water-based fluid and subsequently in a deuterium oxide-based fluid, which rapidly exchanges the intracellular water content. Correlations between dry density and cellular proliferation and composition are described. Dry density is described as a quantitative index that correlates with proliferation and cellular chemical composition.
