摘要:
The application relates to a chemical sensor device comprising a substrate (1), a sensor medium (3) formed on the substrate, the sensor medium comprising one-dimensional nanoparticles, wherein the one-dimensional nanoparticles essentially consist of a semiconducting AxBy compound, e.g. V2O5 and detection means (2) for detecting a change of a physical property of the sensor medium e.g. conductivity. The porosity of the sensor medium supports a fast access of the analyte to the sensing material and therefore a fast response of the sensor. The selectivity and sensitivity of the sensor can be tailored by doping the one-dimensional nanoscale material with different dopants or by varying the dopant concentration. Sensitivity of the sensor device to an analyte, preferably an amine, can be increased by increasing relative humidity of the sample to at least 5%.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a bioelectronic device comprising a living cell which is in operative contact with an extracellular planar potential-sensitive electrode, e.g. a field effect transistor. The cell comprises first and second ion channel/receptor systems which are responsive to stimuli. The ion channels are selected such that the ion flux of the first ion channel is directed against the ion flux of the second ion channel. Thus, the device is suitable as a bioelectronic sensor. Further, the invention relates to a method for determining the response of the cell to a stimulus. The method is e.g. suitable for drug screening.
摘要:
The invention relates to a nozzle assembly (1) for dispensing a fluid, especially for injecting the fluid into a vacuum chamber. The nozzle assembly (1) includes a nozzle body (2) with a continuous nozzle duct (9) and a nozzle port (10) that is embodied at the discharge end and is used for discharging the fluid, and a feeding capillary tube (8) which extends co-axially in relation to the nozzle duct (9) and is used for delivering the fluid to be injected. The feeding capillary tube (8) extends into the nozzle duct (9) of the nozzle body (2) in the direction of flow in order to reduce the dead volume.

The present invention relates to the modulation of transactivation of receptor tyrosine kinases by G protein or G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) mediated signal transduction in a cell or an organism comprising inhibiting the activity of the metalloprotease TACE/ADAM17 and/or the activity of the receptor tyrosine kinase ligand amphiregulin.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method of fabricating a structure with field-effect transistors each comprising a source electrode, a drain electrode, a channel extending between the source and drain electrodes and at least one gate electrode associated with the channel for controlling the conductance of the channel, wherein the channel comprises one or more semiconducting single-wall carbon nanotubes. The method includes the steps of a) depositing a plurality of single-wall carbon nanotubes on a substrate, the carbon nanotubes including a mixture of metallic carbon nanotubes and semiconducting carbon nanotubes, b) providing before or after step a) source and drain electrodes on the substrate so that one or more carbon nanotubes extend between the source and drain electrodes, c) applying a variable gate voltage to switch off the semiconducting tubes extending between the source and drain electrodes, d) wetting the surface of the structure including the transistors with a chemical to achieve a chemical bond between a radical supplied by the chemical and some carbon atoms of the metallic nanotubes, whereby these metallic nanotubes become non-conductive.
