Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) enhanced biosensors by Zhang, Jinling

“…For example, binding of molecules in the vicinity of the surface induces the refractive index changes, which causes variations in the extinction spectra, eg. shift in peak position at a particular wavelength and/or line shape. The sensitivity, specificity, selectivity, robustness, portability, speed and costs are the significant evaluation factors of a biosensor. …”

Wideband passive multiport model order reduction and realization of RLCM circuits by Tan, Sheldon X. D., Qi, Zhenyu, Yu, Hao, Liu, Pu, He, Lei

“…Experimental results on an RF spiral inductor and a number of high-speed transmission line circuits are presented. In comparison with other approaches, the proposed reduction is as accurate as passive reduced-order interconnect macromodeling algorithm in the high-frequency domain due to the enhanced multipoint expansion, but leads to smaller realized circuit models. …”

Hybrid mesoporous microbeads based on sheets-like sulfur-doped copper oxide embedded in calcium alginate-derived carbon for batch and columnar adsorption of cationic dye by Naggar, Ahmed H., Alshammari, Mutairah S., Seaf-Elnasr, Tarek A., Chong, Kwok Feng, Bakr, Zinab H., Alotaibi, N. F., Ali, Hazim M., El-Nasser, Karam S., Thabet, Mahmoud, Abd El-Monaem, Eman M., Goda, Adel E. S., Gomaa, Hassanien

“…The columnar adsorption tests showed that the adsorption capacity of SCO@CACBs varied from 83.6 to 71.3 mg/g as the flow rate varied from 2 to 6 mL/min and 81.5–115.6 mg/g as the adsorbent mass varied from 1 to 4 g. …”

Temporal pressure enhanced topical drug delivery through micropore formation by Lio, Daniel Chin Shiuan, Chia, Ruining, Kwek, Milton Sheng Yi, Wiraja, Christian, Madden, Leigh Edward, Chang, Hao, S. Mohideen Abdul Khadir, Wang, Xiaomeng, Becker, David Lawrence, Xu, Chenjie

“…The creation of micropores (~3 μm2) on the epidermal layer through a temporal pressure treatment results in the elevated expression of gap junctions, and reduced expression of occludin tight junctions. A 1 min treatment of 0.28-MPa allows nanoparticles (up to 500 nm) and macromolecules (up to 20 kDa) to reach a depth of 430-μm into the dermal layer. …”
