Experimental development of fabry-perot fiber-optic metal ion sensor based on layer-by-layer (chitosan/polystyrene sulfonate) substrate and ionophore (carboxymethyl 18-crown-6). by Yu, Feng Jen.

“…In this project, development of a novel label-free Fiber-Optic Fabry-Perot interferometry (FPI) metal ion detector based on a successful immunosensor with similar mechanism is proposed. 2 configurations of the sensor were proposed, one with an additional SMF cap and one without. Using the EDC / NHS coupling mechanism, the sensing element (ionophore) was attached to the polyelectrolyte substrate (Chitosan / Polystyrene Sulfonate) formed by performing polymeric layer-by-layer (LBL) self-assembly technique. …”

The spreadsheet : is it an asset in an accountants balance sheet? by Heng, Stefanie Gek Hiong, Ng, Jane Sook Yin, Sia, Valerie Puay Khim

“…Hence, plans to increase/maintain market share should perhaps take into account strategic factors like: -building market share quickly, -enticing upgraders to switch, and -preventing existing customers from switching. To cap it all, this project has confirmed the role spreadsheets play in contributing to work performances within the accounting arena and dispelled the "myth" (belief) that Lotus is the leading spreadsheet.…”
