20090019934 | Micro-sensor for sensing chemical substance - The invention discloses a micro-sensor for sensing a chemical substance. The micro-sensor according to the invention includes a substrate, a micro-cantilever, an electrode structure, and a measuring device. The micro-cantilever is formed on the substrate and has a capturing surface for capturing chemical substances. The electrode structure is for supplying an electrical field. The electrical field is disposed so as to assist the capturing surface in capturing chemical substances. The measuring device, coupled to the micro-cantilever, is for measuring a variation on a mechanical property of the micro-cantilever induced by the captured chemical substance and interpreting the variation on the mechanical property of the micro-cantilever into information relative to the chemical substance. | 01-22-2009 |
20100170788 | ELECTROSENSING ANTIBODY-PROBE DETECTION AND MEASUREMENT SENSOR USING CONDUCTIVITY PROMOTION BUFFER - A sensor system for electrosensing an antigen in a test sample is disclosed. The sensor system has two electrodes electrically disconnected and physically separated from each other, and a layer of antibody is immobilized on the surface of the electrodes. The antibody has specific binding reactivity with the antigen. Conductivity promotion molecules suspended in a buffer solution may be distributed over and/or between the antibody-populated electrodes for improving electrical conductivity characteristics across the two electrodes. The antibody captures the antigen present in the test sample mixed in the buffer solution that comes into contact with the antibody-populated electrodes. This alters the electrical conductivity characteristic across the two electrodes in which an amount representative of the altering provides an indication for electrosensing of the antigen. | 07-08-2010 |
20100170792 | ELECTROSENSING ANTIBODY-PROBE DETECTION AND MEASUREMENT SENSOR - A sensor for electrosensing an antigen in a test sample is disclosed. The sensor has two electrodes electrically disconnected and physically separated from each other, and a layer of antibody is immobilized on the surface of at least one of the electrodes. The antibody has specific binding reactivity with the antigen. Conductivity promotion molecules may be tethered over and/or distributed between the antibody-populated electrodes for improving electrical conductivity characteristics across the two electrodes.

This alters the electrical conductivity characteristic across the two electrodes in which an amount representative of the altering provides an indication for electrosensing of the antigen. | 07-08-2010 |
20100171487 | ELECTROSENSING ANTIBODY-PROBE DETECTION AND MEASUREMENT METHOD - A method of electrosensing an antigen in a test sample using a sensor is disclosed. The sensor has two electrodes electrically disconnected and physically separated from each other and a layer of antibody immobilized on the surface of at least one of the electrodes. The antibody has specific binding reactivity with the antigen. The method comprises tethering conductivity promotion molecules over and/or distributing between the antibody-populated electrodes for improving electrical conductivity characteristics across the two electrodes, and measuring electrically across the electrodes after the test sample comes into contact with the antibody-populated electrodes. The antibody captures the antigen present in the test sample thereby altering the improved electrical conductivity characteristic across the two electrodes in which an amount representative of the altering providing an indication for electrosensing of the antigen. | 07-08-2010 |
20100172800 | ELECTROSENSING ANTIBODY-PROBE DETECTION AND MEASUREMENT SENSOR HAVING CONDUCTIVITY PROMOTION MOLECULES - A sensor for electrosensing an antigen in a test sample is disclosed. The sensor has two electrodes electrically disconnected and physically separated from each other, a layer of antibody immobilized on the surface of at least one of said electrodes. The antibody has specific binding reactivity with the antigen. Conductivity promotion molecules are conjugated with the antibody to improve electrical conductivity characteristics across the two electrodes. The antibody captures the antigen present in the test sample mixed in a buffer solution that comes into contact with the antibody-populated electrodes. This alters the electrical conductivity characteristic across the two electrodes in which an amount representative of the altering provides an indication for electrosensing of the antigen. | 07-08-2010 |
