The developed system allows the identification and selection of "good" ISFETs at the earliest stage and to avoid expensive bonding, encapsulation and packaging processes for nonfunctioning ISFETs and thus, to decrease costs, which are wasted for bad dies. The developed system is also feasible for wafer-level characterisation of ISFETs in terms of sensitivity, hysteresis and response time.

The surface of silicon modified by APTS and GOPS with immobilised enzyme was characterised by atomic force microscopy (AFM), time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectroscopy (ToF-SIMS) and infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The supports with immobilised enzyme (urease) were also tested in combination with microreactors fabricated in silicon and Perspex, operating in a flow-through system. For microreactors filled with urease immobilised on glass beads (Sigma) and on polymeric beads (PAN), a very high and stable signal (pH change) was obtained.

The detector head consists of a dual layer of 8×8 LSO and LuYAP crystal arrays coupled to a multi-anode photomultiplier tube (Hamamatsu R7600-M64). Equalistion of the LSO/LuYAP light collection is obtained through partial attenuation of the LSO scintillation light using a thin aluminum deposit of 20-35 nm on LSO and appropriate temperature regulation of the phoswich head between 30°C to 60°C. At 511keV, typical FWHM energy resolutions of the pixels of a phoswich head amounts to (28±2)\% for LSO and (25±2)\% for LuYAP. The LSO versus LuYAP crystal identification efficiency is better than 98\%. Six detector modules have been mounted on a rotating gantry. Axial and tangential spatial resolutions were measured up to 4 cm from the scanner axis and compared to Monte Carlo simulations using GATE. FWHM spatial resolution ranges from 1.3 mm on axis to 2.6 mm at 4 cm from the axis.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{MorenoDosevBratovetal.2006, author = {Moreno, Lia and Dosev, D. and Bratov, A. and Dominguez, C. and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Kloock, Joachim P.}, title = {Effect of electrical properties of the surrounding medium on the response of an interdigitated electrode array with chalcogenide glass film}, series = {XX Eurosensors : 20th anniversary ; G{\"o}teborg, Sweden, 17 - 20 September 2006 ; [proceedings]. - Vol. 1}, booktitle = {XX Eurosensors : 20th anniversary ; G{\"o}teborg, Sweden, 17 - 20 September 2006 ; [proceedings]. - Vol. 1}, address = {G{\"o}teborg}, isbn = {978-91-631-9280-7}, pages = {384 -- 385}, year = {2006}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{MirmohseniRostamizadeh2006, author = {Mirmohseni, Abdolreza and Rostamizadeh, Kobra}, title = {Quartz crystal nanobalance in conjunction with principal component analysis for identification of volatile organic compounds}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:a96-opus-1434}, year = {2006}, abstract = {Quartz crystal nanobalance (QCN) sensors are considered as powerful masssensitive sensors to determine materials in the sub-nanogram level. In this study, a single piezoelectric quartz crystal nanobalance modified with polystyrene was employed to detect benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene (BTEX compounds). The frequency shift of the QCN sensor was found to be linear against the BTEX compound concentrations in the range about 1-45 mg l-1. The correlation coefficients for benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene were 0.991, 0.9977, 0.9946 and 0.9971, respectively. The principal component analysis was also utilized to process the frequency response data of the single piezoelectric crystal at different times, considering to the different adsorption-desorption dynamics of BTEX compounds. Using principal component analysis, it was found that over 90\% of the data variance could still be explained by use of two principal components (PC1 and PC2). Subsequently, the successful identification of benzene and toluene was possible through the principal component analysis of the transient responses of the polystyrene modified QCN sensor. The results showed that the polystyrene-modified QCN had favorable identification and quantification performances for the BTEX compounds.}, subject = {Biosensor}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{LeiMulchandaniChenetal.2006, author = {Lei, Yu and Mulchandani, Priti and Chen, Wilfred and Mulchandani, Ashok}, title = {Biosensor for direct determination of fenitrothion and EPN using recombinant Pseudomonas putida JS444 with surface expressed organophosphorus hydrolase. 1. modified clark oxygen electrode}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:a96-opus-1573}, year = {2006}, abstract = {This paper reports a first microbial biosensor for rapid and cost-effective determination of organophosphorus pesticides fenitrothion and EPN.

Surfaceexpressed OPH catalyzed the hydrolysis of fenitrothion and EPN to release 3-methyl-4-nitrophenol and p-nitrophenol, respectively, which were oxidized by the enzymatic machinery of Pseudomonas putida JS444 to carbon dioxide while consuming oxygen, which was measured and correlated to the concentration of organophosphates. Under the optimum operating conditions, the biosensor was able to measure as low as 277 ppb of fenitrothion and 1.6 ppm of EPN without interference from phenolic compounds and other commonly used pesticides such as carbamate pesticides, triazine herbicides and organophosphate pesticides without nitrophenyl substituent.
