In recent, it is worldwide issued that nanoscale science and technology as a solution have supported to increase the sensing performance in carbon nanotube based biosensor system. Containing material chemistry in various nanostructures has formed their high potentials for stabilizing and activating biocatalyst as a bioreceptor for medical, food contaminants, and environmental detections using electrode modification technologies. Especially, the large surface area provides the attachment of biocatalysts increasing the biocatalyst loading. Therefore, nano-scale engineering of the biocatalysts have been suggested to be the next stage advancement of biosensors. Here, we would like to study the electrical mechanism depending on the exposure methods (soaking or dropping) to the sample solution to the assembled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on the gold electrodes of biosensor for a simple and highly sensitive detection. We performed various experiments using polar and non-polar solutions as sampling tests and identified electrical response of assembled CNTs in those solutions.

Due to human life expectancy of the recent development of medical technology recently, it leads to increase the desire for improving the quality of human life, and grow health concerns and needs. Therefore, in order to prevent the occurrence of disease and to check up a disease quickly, research on the development of a biosensor has been actively processed. One of them, the nano-carbon materials, are very suitable for manufacturing biosensor due to their excellent electrical/mechanical properties. In this review, we introduced the recent studies about preparation methods of carbon electrodes using the carbon nano-materials for biosensors as well as its technological applications.

바이오센서 응용을 위한 대칭 및 비대칭 마하젠더 간섭계 광도파로 소자의 설계, 제작 및 광학적 응답특성을 평가하였다. 설계 제작된 광도파로 소자의 압력광원은 각각 1550nm와 632.8nm이고, 코어와 클래딩의 굴절률차는 0.45 $\Delta$%로 설계 제작하였다. 센서부(상위 클래드)의 금 박막의 미소 굴절률 변화에 따른 TE, TM모드의 특성을 분석하였다. 센서의 보다 높은 감도 개선을 위한 나노-광자결정 구조가 주목받고 있는데, 광자결정 구조의 구현를 위한 리소그래피 공정은 높은 분해능과 신뢰성 있는 나노스케일의 공정이 요구된다. 광-바이오센서의 감도 개선을 위해 센서부 표면에 2차원 나노-광자결정 배열을 제안하고 이를 구현하기 위한 Dip-Pen Nanolithography 공정에 대해 고찰하였다.

Colloids are a heterogeneous system in which particles of a few nanometers to hundreds micrometers in size are finely dispersed in liquid medium, but show homogeneous properties in macroscopic scale. They have attracted much attention not only as model systems of natural atomic and molecular self-assembled structures but also as novel structural materials of practical applications in a wide range of areas. In particular, recent advances in colloidal science have focused on nano-bio materials and devices which are essential for drug discovery and delivery, diagnostics and biomedical applications. In this review, first we introduce nano-bio colloidal systems and surface modification of colloidal particles which creates various functional groups. Then, various methods of fabrication of colloidal particles using holographic lithography, microfluidics and virus templates are discussed in detail. Finally, various applications of colloids in metal inks, three-dimensional photonic crystals and two-dimensional nanopatterns are also reviewed as representative potential applications.

Magnetic nanoparticles are widely used for bio-medical applications such as MRI contrast agents, drug-delivery systems, cell separation and hyperthermia, thanks to their unique magnetic properties and physico-chemical characteristics. In the early stage, efforts were focused on synthesis of uniform nanoparticles of desired dimension to achieve targeted, stable functionalities. Recently, it has been of great interest in dispersion of such nanoparitcles in aqueous solution and to render the nanoparticles bio-compatible with biofunctionality on request for utilization in bio-medical fields. In this paper, we survey the research status and give prospective on future work of magnetic nanoparticles for biomedical applications.

This paper provides a review of the electrical sensing biosensors and examine research cases of biosensors based on clothing and textiels. A biosensor which can measure bio-signals is a device that senses the physical and chemical characteristics of biological materials by using biological sensing materials. Therefore, wellness wear that is closely integrated with the user's real life will play an important role in achieving U-Health. The biosensors' unique feature which can be differentiated from the existing sensors is it's using of selective reactions and binding of biological substances. The electrical sensing biosensors are very small in size due to the processing of electrical signals, which can be used to create ubiquitous. Therefore, it is necessary to study electrical sensing biosensors that are easy to miniaturize to develop wellness wear. This paper describes the electrical sensing biosensor (an electrochemical method nanowire/carbon nanotube FET method) in detail. Finally, the future direction of biosensors to be applied to wellness wear is suggested.

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) exhibit strong Raman signals as well as fluorescence emissions in the near infrared regions where most biomolecules are transparent. Such signals do not blink or photobleach under prolonged excitation. which is advantageous to optical nano-bio marker applications. In this paper, single walled carbon nanotubes are conjugated with specific types of single-stranded DNA in order to detect oligonucleotides of corresponding complimentary sequences. Dot blotting experiments and comparative Raman spectroscopy observations demonstrated excellent sensitivity and specificity of carbon nanotube-DNA probes. The results show the possibility of using SWNT as generic nano-bio markers for the precise detection of specific kinds of genes.

최근 질병 조기진단에 대한 사회적 요구가 높아짐에 따라 이에 대한 기술에 관심이 집중되고 있다. 그 중 표면증강라만산란(surface enhanced Raman scattering(SERS))을 이용하여 인체 내 소량의 바이오마커를 검출하는 연구가 활발히 진행중이다. 본 연구에서는 바이오마커의 검지감도를 최대치로 증가시키기 위해 SERS 기판의 나노구조를 최적화 하였다. SERS 기판 표면의 나노구조, 크기, 형상, 밀도 등에 따라 검지감도가 변화되기 때문에 이를 제어하기 위해 증착공정 변수에 변화를 주어 표면의 나노구조를 형성하였다. 이를 분석하기 위해 SEM, XRD를 사용하였으며 최적화된 SERS 기판을 활용하여 Rhodamine 6G의 신호가 $1{\times}10^5$ 이상의 enhancing factor를 확인하였다.
