Self-Powered Point-of-Care Device for Galvanic Cell-Based Sample Concentration Measurement.

A novel self-powered point-of-care low-power electronics approach for galvanic cell-based sample concentration measurement is presented. The electronic system harvests and senses at the same time from the single cell. The system implements a solution that is suitable in those scenarios where extreme low power is generated from the fuel cell.

Combined Dielectrophoresis and Impedance Systems for Bacteria Analysis in Microfluidic On-Chip Platforms.

Bacteria concentration and detection is time-consuming in regular microbiology procedures aimed to facilitate the detection and analysis of these cells at very low concentrations. Traditional methods are effective but often require several days to complete. This scenario results in low bioanalytical and diagnostic methodologies with associated increased costs and complexity.
