Protein screening/detection is an essential tool in many laboratories. Owing to the relatively large time investments that are required by standard protocols, the development of methods with higher throughput while maintaining an at least comparable signal-to-noise ratio would be highly beneficial to many researchers. This chapter describes how cold microwave technology can be used to enhance the rate of molecular interactions and provides protocols for dot blots, western blots, and ELISA procedures permitting a completion of all incubation steps (blocking and antibody steps) within 45 min.

The use of non-cryogenic certified commercial electronics for cryogenic applications may be attractive due to their cost and availability, but it also carries risks related to reliability, performance and thermal compatibility. The decision to use commercial components that are not certified for cryogenics instead of components specifically designed for such applications must be carefully weighed based on specific project needs and risk tolerances. This work presents the characterisation of an attenuator circuit at cryogenic temperatures used in a microwave kinetic inductance detector (MKID) readout system.

TiC provides a promising potential for high-temperature microwave absorbers due to its unique combination of thermal stability, high electrical conductivity, and robust structural integrity. C@TiC/SiO composites were successfully fabricated using a simple blending and cold-pressing method. The effects of C@TiC's absorbent content and temperature on the dielectric and microwave absorption properties of C@TiC/SiO composites were investigated.

The margarine market is growing globally due to its lower cost, ease of availability, large-scale commercialization, and expanding market in the bakery and confectionary industries. Butter contains greater amounts of saturated fat and has been associated with cardiovascular diseases. The trans fats generated through the hydrogenation process have several adverse impacts on human health, such as the risk of atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, postmenopausal breast cancer, vision and neurological system impairment, type II diabetes, and obesity.

The presence of Bacillus cereus in spices and herbs has posed a detrimental effect on food safety. The absence of thorough testing, comprehensive reporting, and vigilant surveillance of the illness has resulted in a significant underestimation of the true prevalence of foodborne illness caused by B. cereus.
