TL;DR: This approach realizes the PSA detection at clinical relevant concentrations by introducing a sandwich assay involving a biotinylated secondary antibody and streptavidin modified gold nanoparticles.

TL;DR: The 1st EuNetAir Air Quality Joint Intercomparison Exercise organized in Aveiro (Portugal) from 13th-27th October 2014, focused on the evaluation and assessment of environmental gas, particulate matter (PM) and meteorological microsensors, versus standard air quality reference methods through an experimental urban air quality monitoring campaign.

TL;DR: Combined SPR/SAW measurements suggest that the adsorbed protein barely contains water after extended contact with the hydrophobic surface, and the viscoelastic variation associated with interfacial conformation changes induces about 1.5 times overestimation of the mass uptake in the QCM-D measurements.

TL;DR: An exhaustive reviewing study of the state-of-the-art of mechanical harvester systems, enclosing main different existing improvement techniques and their design concept, particularly for piezoelectric and electromagnetic transductions is presented.

TL;DR: With its small area and low power consumption, the present capacitive array is particularly suitable for portable point-of-care (PoC) diagnosis tools and lab-on-chip (LoC) systems.
