A Monolithic biosensing platform is presented for miniaturized amperometric electrochemical sensing in CMOS. The system consists of a fully-integrated current readout circuit for differential current measurement as well as on-die sensors developed by growi ...

The great interest in portable and wearable monitoring systems has promoted in recent years a major expansion of all-solid-state Ion-Selective Electrodes (ISEs). Nanostructured Solid-Contacts (SCs) have shown a promising potential in order to eliminate the ...

Semiconductor nanowires are emerging as promising building blocks for biosensors enabling direct electrical detection of various biomolecules. In this framework, two-terminal Schottky-barrier silicon (Si) nanowire arrays that exhibit memristive electrical ...

The aim of this work was to demonstrate that various types of nanostructures provide different gains in terms of sensitivity or detection limit albeit providing the same gain in terms of increased area. Commercial screen printed electrodes (SPEs) were func ...

Real-time and multi-target detection by wireless implantable devices is of increasing interest for chronic patients. In this work, electrode sharing is proposed to minimize the size of the implantable device when several three-electrode-based sensing sites ...

Google Glass is a recently designed wearable device capable of displaying information in a smartphone-like hands-free format by wireless communication. The Glass also provides convenient control over remote devices, primarily enabled by voice recognition c ...

Growing interest in the role of ions as cell death regulators has led to the consideration of K+, which plays a major role in events such as necrosis, apoptosis and osmotic shock. These mechanisms induce effluxes of K+, which can be m ...

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes and graphene nanoflowers were grown by a catalytic chemical vapor deposition process on metal surfaces. Electrodeposition was used as a versatile technique to obtain three different iron catalyst coatings on platinum microelec ...

Recent advances in microelectronics and biosensors are enabling developments of innovative biochips for advanced healthcare by providing fully integrated platforms for continuous monitoring of a large set of human disease biomarkers. Continuous monitoring ...

Despite the huge expansion in recent years of sweat sensing and wearable technologies, several challenges are still open, including poor sample collection, separate sampling and analysis, low multi-sensing capabilities and materials toxicity. In this work, ...

A comparison between engineered and commercially available L-lactate oxidases from Aerococcus viridans was conducted for biosensing applications. Enzymes were adsorbed onto the surfaces of graphite electrodes modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes. Th ...

Monitoring patients in intensive care units is generally expensive and time consuming. A prompter medical intervention for those critical patients is a key factor for their safety. Therefore, a system that offers immediate visualization of the monitored da ...

Biosensors benefit from specific nano- to monitor human metabolites [1], [2]. Moreover, small structuration of the active bio-interface layer. In this electrodes allow us to design many sensing sites, each perspective, a wide range of carbon nanomaterials ...

We report a novel electrochemical sensor based on nanographite grown on platinum microelectrodes for the determination of bilirubin in the presence of normal concentrations of albumin. The albumin is a protein with an intrinsic ability to bind the bilirubi ...

Nowadays, medical devices face several limitations concerning rapid, reliable and simultaneous quantification of a set of ions and metabolites from a micro-nanoliter volume of undiluted samples. The development of minimally-sized devices is, therefore, of ...

Lithium is the main drug for the treatment of mood disorders. Due to its narrow therapeutic window, Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM) is a norm during therapy in order to avoid adverse effects. Consequently, patients are obliged to frequent check-ups in ho ...

The Hemolytic Disease of the Fetus and Newborn (HDFN), if untreated, can have severe consequences on baby’s health, eventually causing death. Prevention and diagnosis of pregnancies at risk of HDFN consists in quantitative analysis in hospital every 2-4 we ...

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) improve the sensitivity of electrochemical biosensors. An optimized CNT/trasducer inte- gration is required to realize accurate devices. The nanotube orientation on the sensor electrode is a key parameter. The role of the sidewalls ...
