The sensor system consists of a remote unit connected to a calorimetric gas sensor, which was already established in former works, and an external base unit connected to a laptop computer. The remote unit was built up by an XBee radio frequency (RF) module for data communication and a programmable system-on-chip controller to read out the sensor signal and process the sensor data, whereas the base unit is a second XBee RF module. For the rapid H2O2 detection on various locations inside the package that has to be sterilized, a novel read-out strategy of the calorimetric gas sensor was established, wherein the sensor response is measured within the short sterilization time and correlated with the present H2O2 concentration. In an exemplary measurement application in an aseptic filling machinery, the suitability of the new, wireless sensor system was demonstrated, wherein the influence of the gas velocity on the H2O2 distribution inside a package was determined and verified with microbiological tests.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KreyerStollenwerkSchoening2013, author = {Kreyer, J{\"o}rg and Stollenwerk, Dominik and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Tagung des Forschernachwuchses der FH Aachen 20.

Pure SnO2 and WO3 as well as Pd- and Pt-doped SnO2 films are characterized in terms of their sensitivity to H2O2. The sensing films have been prepared by drop-coating of water-dispensed nano-powders. A physical characterization, including scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis of the deposited metal-oxide films, was done. From the measurements in hydrogen peroxide atmosphere, it could be shown, that all of the tested metal oxide films are suitable for the detection of H2O2 in the ppm range. The highest sensitivity and reproducibility was achieved using Pt-doped SnO2.

Therefore, the sterilisation process was extensively studied by using test specimens inoculated with Bacillus atrophaeus spores in order to identify the most influencing process factors on its microbicidal effectiveness. Besides the contact time of the test specimens with gaseous H2O2 varied between 0.2 and 0.5 s, the present H2O2 concentration in a range from 0 to 8\% v/v (volume percent) had a strong influence on the microbicidal effectiveness, whereas the change of the vaporiser temperature, gas flow and humidity were almost negligible. Furthermore, a calorimetric H2O2 gas sensor was characterised in the sterilisation process with gaseous H2O2 in a wide range of parameter settings, wherein the measurement signal has shown a linear response against the H2O2 concentration with a sensitivity of 4.75 °C/(\% v/v). In a final step, a correlation model by matching the measurement signal of the gas sensor with the microbial inactivation kinetics was established that demonstrates its suitability as an efficient method for validating the microbicidal effectiveness of sterilisation processes with gaseous H2O2.}, 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} } @inproceedings{OberlaenderReisertKirchneretal.2013, author = {Oberl{\"a}nder, Jan and Reisert, Steffen and Kirchner, Patrick and Wagner, Patrick and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Kalorimetrische Gassensoren zur H2O2-Detektion in aseptischen Sterilisationsprozessen}, series = {11.
