Automated sample preparation for electrospray ionization mass spectrometry based on CLOCK-controlled autonomous centrifugal microfluidics
We report a centrifugal microfluidic device that automatically performs sample preparation under steady-state rotation for clinical applications using mass spectrometry. The autonomous microfluidic device was designed for the control of liquid operation on centrifugal hydrokinetics (CLOCK) paradigm. The reported device was highly stable, with less than 7% variation with respect to the time of each unit operation (sample extraction, mixing, and supernatant extraction) in the preparation process. An agitation mechanism with bubbling was used to mix the sample and organic solvent in this device. We confirmed that the device e...

Kirigami tripod-based electrode for the development of highly stretchable dengue aptasensor
In this study, the kirigami approach has been utilized to develop a stretchable, movable, and flexible sensor. The constructed stretchable-kirigami electrode helps in adjusting the connection of electrodes without disturbing the electrochemical cell zone during the experiment. To increase the sensitivity of this biosensor we have synthesized Ag-NPs (Silver nanoparticles) via chemical methods and characterized their results with the help of TEM & UV-Vis Spectroscopy. Different electrochemical approaches were used to validate the sensor response i.e., CV (Cyclic voltammetry) and LSV (Linear sweep voltammetry), which exhi...
