Download or read book Fiber Optic Metal Ion Biosensor written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central objective of this project was to see if a fluorescence-based sensor employing a biological or biomimetic molecule as a transducer could demonstrate high sensitivity, selectivity as well as rapid and reversible response to an analyte such as Cu(II) or Zn(II). A key goal was to see if the sensor figures of merit could be optimized by modification (mutagenesis)of the transducer molecule; among the figures of merit were the affinity, selectivity, stability, and response speed of the sensor. Results of that work are described in the ONR grant Final Reports of Drs. Carol Fierke and David Christianson.

Book excerpt: This report describes exploratory development of the fiber optic metal ion biosensor initially developed under ONR contract NOOOl4-9l-J-l572. The anticipated application is to monitor wastewater outflows to verify the success of treatment procedures for removing Cu(II); of special interest are wastewater outflows from drydocks resulting from hull blasting and washing operations, which contain ppm levels of Cu and Zn prior to treatment. Issues in this phase of development include the response speed and reversibility of the sensor, transducer stability, and the presence of interferents in treated wastewater. We found that the sensor responded in less than one minute to part per trillion levels of free Cu(II), that it was reversible at the expected rate, that treated wastewater could be measured, and that the apoprotein was storable for months.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Optical Fiber Biosensors: Device Platforms, Biorecognition, Applications provides a comprehensive overview of the field of fiber optic sensors using an interdisciplinary approach that covers the fabrication of sensing devices and optical hardware, the functionalization to perform selective biorecognition, and the main applications of biosensors, with a present and a future outlook. Chapters discuss the principles of light propagation and the sensing devices suitable to perform biosensing with optical fibers, the process to functionalize the previous devices to selective biosensing, and applications in cells, small molecules, biomarkers and protein sensing, with a birds eye view on the most important results. This book provides a coherent picture of fiber optic biosensors, from the start (the device) to the end (the application), explaining in simple terms what is the whole process for development of a biosensor. The book also contains practical material (e.g. commercial instruments, fabrication instructions, medical standards for biocompatibility) that cannot be easily found elsewhere, and this is very useful for researchers to plan their development and build their labs. Covers the technologies and operating principles of optical fiber devices used in biosensing Contains chapters on the chemistry and operational strategy to functionalize a fiber device to become an effective biosensor Addresses the main applications of fiber optic biosensors and their specialization
