Spectroscopic and quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) characterisation of protein-based MIPs [PDF]

Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical, 2015
We have studied acrylamide-based polymers of varying hydrophobicity (acrylamide, AA; N-hydroxymethylacrylamide, NHMA; N-isopropylacrylamide, NiPAm) for their capability of imprinting protein. Rebinding capacities (Q) from spectroscopic studies were highest for bovine haemoglobin (BHb) MIPs based on AA, Q = 4.8 ± 0.21 < NHMA, Q = 4.3 ± 0.32 < NiPAm, Q =

Pocketable Biosensor Based on Quartz-Crystal Microbalance and Its Application to DNA Detection

Sensors, 2022
Quartz-crystal microbalance (QCM) is a technique that can measure nanogram-order masses. When a receptor is immobilized on the sensor surface of a QCM device, the device can detect chemical molecules captured by the mass change. Although QCM devices have

Redox‐Confined Interfacial Polymerization Enables Mechanically Robust and Self‐Adhesive Nanofilms

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Redox‐confined polymerization of a simple thiol monomer at a water‐organic interface generates robust freestanding films with nanoscale thickness. The resulting disulfide‐crosslinked nanofilms combine high stiffness with intrinsic adhesion to soft substrates, enabling conformal contact with artificial skin without additional functionalization.

Keratin–Melanin Complexation Enables Robust, Delamination‐Resistant Feather‐Inspired Structural Color Coatings for Flexible and Curved Substrates

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Providing mechanically robust structural color coating technology inspired by cooperative interactions in nature. The spatial arrangement of melanin particles within the keratin matrix generates angle‐independent structural colors. Diverse functional groups in keratin and melanin contribute to interparticle and substrate adhesion, resulting in the ...

Characterising room temperature ionic liquids with acoustic wave devices [PDF]

, 2010
Data for the physical properties of Room Temperature Ionic Liquids (RTILs) as a function of chemical composition is limited due to the expense and difficulty of producing large volumes of pure samples for characterization.

Self-assembly of phthalocyanines on quartz crystal microbalances for QCM liquid sensing applications

Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical, 2014
Abstract After their widespread use in gas sensors, phthalocyanines are applied as sorption matrices for quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) sensors in liquid phase, as well. In order to enhance sensor performance, the application of ultrathin Pc films is envisaged.
