The sensitive parameters of TMV-assisted biosensors depend, among others, on the density of adsorbed TMV particles on the sensor surface, which is affected by both the adsorption conditions and surface properties of the sensor. In this work, Ta₂O₅-gate field-effect capacitive sensors have been applied for the label-free electrical detection of TMV adsorption. The impact of the TMV concentration on both the sensor signal and the density of TMV particles adsorbed onto the Ta₂O₅-gate surface has been studied systematically by means of field-effect and scanning electron microscopy methods. In addition, the surface density of TMV particles loaded under different incubation times has been investigated. Finally, the field-effect sensor also demonstrates the label-free detection of penicillinase immobilization as model bioreceptor on TMV particles.}, language = {en} } @article{IngebrandtHanNakamuraetal.2007, author = {Ingebrandt, S. and Han, Y. and Nakamura, F. and Poghossian, Arshak and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Offenh{\"a}usser, A.}, title = {Label-free detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms utilizing the differential transfer function of field-effect transistors}, series = {Biosensors and Bioelectronics. 22 (2007), H. 12}, journal = {Biosensors and Bioelectronics. 22 (2007), H. 12}, isbn = {0956-5663}, pages = {2834 -- 2840}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @article{HuckSchiffelsHerreraetal.2013, author = {Huck, Christina and Schiffels, Johannes and Herrera, Cony N. and Schelden, Maximilian and Selmer, Thorsten and Poghossian, Arshak and Baumann, Marcus and Wagner, Patrick and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Metabolic responses of Escherichia coli upon glucose pulses captured by a capacitive field-effect sensor}, series = {Physica Status Solidi (A)}, volume = {210}, journal = {Physica Status Solidi (A)}, number = {5}, publisher = {Wiley-VCH}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {0031-8965}, doi = {10.1002/pssa.201200900}, pages = {926 -- 931}, year = {2013}, abstract = {Living cells are complex biological systems transforming metabolites taken up from the surrounding medium. Monitoring the responses of such cells to certain substrate concentrations is a challenging task and offers possibilities to gain insight into the vitality of a community influenced by the growth environment. Cell-based sensors represent a promising platform for monitoring the metabolic activity and thus, the "welfare" of relevant organisms. In the present study, metabolic responses of the model bacterium Escherichia coli in suspension, layered onto a capacitive field-effect structure, were examined to pulses of glucose in the concentration range between 0.05 and 2 mM. It was found that acidification of the surrounding medium takes place immediately after glucose addition and follows Michaelis-Menten kinetic behavior as a function of the glucose concentration. In future, the presented setup can, therefore, be used to study substrate specificities on the enzymatic level and may as well be used to perform investigations of more complex metabolic responses. Conclusions and perspectives highlighting this system are discussed.}, language = {en} } @article{HuckPoghossianWagneretal.2012, author = {Huck, Christina and Poghossian, Arshak and Wagner, Patrick and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Combined amperometric/field-effect sensor for the detection of dissolved hydrogen}, series = {Sensors and actuators B: Chemical}, volume = {187}, journal = {Sensors and actuators B: Chemical}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0925-4005}, doi = {10.1016/j.snb.2012.10.050}, pages = {168 -- 173}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Real-time and reliable monitoring of the biogas process is crucial for a stable and efficient operation of biogas production in order to avoid digester breakdowns. The concentration of dissolved hydrogen (H₂) represents one of the key parameters for biogas process control. In this work, a one-chip integrated combined amperometric/field-effect sensor for monitoring the dissolved H₂ concentration has been developed for biogas applications. The combination of two different transducer principles might allow a more accurate and reliable measurement of dissolved H₂ as an early warning indicator of digester failures. The feasibility of the approach has been demonstrated by simultaneous amperometric/field-effect measurements of dissolved H₂ concentrations in electrolyte solutions. Both, the amperometric and the field-effect transducer show a linear response behaviour in the H₂ concentration range from 0.1 to 3\% (v/v) with a slope of 198.4 ± 13.7 nA/\% (v/v) and 14.9 ± 0.5 mV/\% (v/v), respectively.}, language = {en} } @article{HuckPoghossianKerroumietal.2014, author = {Huck, Christina and Poghossian, Arshak and Kerroumi, Iman and Schusser, Sebastian and B{\"a}cker, Matthias and Zander, Willi and Schubert, J{\"u}rgen and Buniatyan, Vahe V. and Martirosyan, Norayr W. and Wagner, Patrick and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Multiparameter sensor chip with Barium Strontium Titanate as multipurpose material}, series = {Electroanalysis}, volume = {26}, journal = {Electroanalysis}, number = {5}, publisher = {Wiley-VCH}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1521-4109 (E-Journal); 1040-0397 (Print)}, doi = {10.1002/elan.201400076}, pages = {980 -- 987}, year = {2014}, abstract = {It is well known that biochemical and biotechnological processes are strongly dependent and affected by a variety of physico-chemical parameters such as pH value, temperature, pressure and electrolyte conductivity.

The chip integrates a capacitively coupled four-electrode electrolyte-conductivity sensor, a capacitive field-effect pH sensor and a thin-film Pt-temperature sensor.

Two enzymes, urease and esterase, were immobilized on the insulating interface of EIS structure producing local pH changes performing XOR logic operation controlled by various combinations of the input signals represented by urea and ethyl butyrate. Another EIS transducer was functionalized with esterase only, thus performing Identity (ID) logic operation for the ethyl butyrate input. Both semiconductor devices assembled in parallel operated as a logically reversible CNOT gate.
