We demonstrate a simple, pump-free platform for performing rapid magnetic bead-based processes via their transfer through sequentially laminated liquid streams, made possible by the use of phaseguide technology. We have applied this strategy to two on-chip assays: (i) a streptavidin-biotin binding assay, and (ii) a sandwich immunoassay for the detection of C-reactive protein (CRP). Here, functionalized magnetic beads were pulled through alternating lanes of reagents and buffer solution, allowing multiple binding and washing processes to be reduced into a single step, significantly shortening procedural times compared to conventional multi-step bead-based assays.

We have developed a magnetic particle-based assay platform in which functionalised magnetic particles are transferred sequentially through laminated volumes of reagents and washing buffers. Lamination of aqueous liquids is achieved via the use of phaseguide technology; microstructures that control the advancing air-liquid interface of solutions as they enter a microfluidic chamber. This allows manual filling of the device, eliminating the need for external pumping systems, and preparation of the system requ...
Magnetic Resonance - Electrical Impedance Tomography (MR-EIT) Research at METU
Eyüboğlu, Behçet Murat (2006-09-01)
Following development of magnetic resonance current density imaging (MRCDI), magnetic resonance - electrical impedance tomography (MR-EIT) has emerged as a promising approach to produce high resolution conductivity images. Electric current applied to a conductor results in a potential field and a magnetic flux density distribution. Using a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system, the magnetic flux density distribution can be reconstructed as in MRCDI. The flux density is related to the current density distr...
Radiation pressure excitation of a low temperature atomic force/magnetic force microscope for imaging in 4-300 K temperature range
Celik, Umit L; KARCI, Ozgur; UYSALLI, Yigit; Özer, Hakkı Tunçay; Oral, Ahmet (2017-01-01)
We describe a novel radiation pressure based cantilever excitation method for imaging in dynamic mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) for the first time. Piezo-excitation is the most common method for cantilever excitation, however it may cause spurious resonance peaks. Therefore, the direct excitation of the cantilever plays a crucial role in AFM imaging. A fiber optic interferometer with a 1310 nm laser was used both for the excitation of the cantilever at the resonance and the deflection measurement of the...
Quantum Transport Mode in Graphene Nanoribbon Based Transistor
Hedayat, Sayed Norollah; Ahmadi, Mohammad Taghi; Sedghi, Hassan; Goudarzi, Hadi; Moradi, Shahram (American Scientific Publishers, 2017-09-01)
Graphene has incredible carrier transport property with high application opportunity at single molecule level, which composes it as promising materials on nano electronic application. In order to develop the new device such as graphene nanoribbon transistor, Carbon Nanotube Field Effect Transistor (CNTFET) and nanowire based devices, it is essential to investigate the quantum limit in low dimensional systems. In this paper transmission coefficient of the schottky structure in the graphene based transistor i...
Tunable frequency microstrip antennas by rf-mems technology
Erdil, Emre; Aydın Çivi, Hatice Özlem; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2005)
This thesis presents the design, fabrication, and measurement of tunable frequency microstrip antennas using RF MEMS (Microelectromechanical Systems) technology. The integration of RF MEMS components with radiators enable to implement tunable systems due to the adjustable characteristics of RF MEMS components. In the frame of this thesis, different types of structures have been investigated and designed. The first structure consists of a microstrip patch antenna which is loaded with a microstrip stub whose ...
