9. [Illinois] ECE 416 Acoustic Wave Sensors

   27 Feb 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham

              In this lecture, we look at the concepts and theories behind the acoustic wave sensor. This sensor communicates through the vibrational waves in matter. The atoms in the system are displaced, causing an Internal Elastic Restoring...

10. [Illinois] ECE 416 Electrochemical Sensors

    27 Feb 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham

               In this lecture, we begin discussing the three types of electrochemical sensors: Potentiometric, Amperometric, and Conductometry. The focus of the lecture is the potentiometric and how it is used to measure the potential difference...

11. [Illinois] ECE 416 Glucose Sensor I

    27 Feb 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham

               In this lecture, we continue the discussion on the oxygen sensor. It starts with a review of the measurement of O2 concentration levels through electrical currents. This is called an amperometric meter. Then, the subject shifts to...

12. [Illinois] ECE 416 Glucose Sensor II

    27 Feb 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham

               In this lecture, we looked at the three generations of the glucose sensor and the ways it has changed. The first generation was the one discussed in the previous lecture in which the glucose concentration was found based off of the...

13. [Illinois] ECE 416 Mass Transport II

    26 Feb 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham

               In this lecture, we look at the mass transfer coefficient of association and dissociation rates of molecules on the biosensor and off of it. Having a flow cell speeds it up, but the molecules must get through a stagnant layer to...

14. [Illinois] ECE 416 Assay Formats

    26 Feb 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham

               In this lecture, assays, which is the most widely used technique to detect molecules on surfaces are discussed. In the direct assays, there is a "labeled assay" method and a "label-Free Assay" method. The Label-Free Assay method is...
