최근 DNA 칩의 등장으로 유전자 관련 실험과 연구가 매우 용이해졌으며 이를 활용한 다양한 실험 결과로 대량의 데이터가 제공되고 있다. DNA칩에 의해 제공된 데이터는 2차원 행렬로 표현되며 하나의 축은 유전자를 나타내고 다른 하나의 축은 샘플정보를 나타낸다. 이러한 데이터에 대하여 빠른 시간 안에 좋은 품질의 군집화를 수행함으로써 이후의 분석 단계인 분류화 작업의 정확도와 효율성을 높일 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 생태계 모방 알고리즘의 하나인 Particle Swarm Optimization 알고리즘을 사용하여 방대한 양의 DNA칩 데이터에 대한 효율적인 군집화 기법을 제안하였으며 실험을 통해서 PSO 기반의 군집화 알고리즘이 기존의 군집화 알고리즘들보다 수행속도 및 품질 면에서 우수한 성능을 가짐을 보였다.

본 논문에서는 한시적 세포포집 구조물을 이용한 다세포 스페로이드의 형성 및 추출칩을 제안하였다. 종래의 웰 플레이트와 플라스크는 작은 스페로이드 형성이 어렵고, 기존 마이크로칩은 고정된 세포포집 구조물을 이용하여 스페로이드 추출이 어려운 단점이 있다. 반면, 제안된 칩은 한시적 세포포집 구조물을 이용하여 스페로이드의 형성과 추출이 모두 용이한 장점이 있다. 50kPa 의 박막압력으로 형성된 세포포집 구조물에 145~155Pa 의 세포입력압력으로 유입되는 세포를 포집한 후, 24 시간 배양하여 스페로이드를 형성하였다. 또한, 박막압력 제거 후 5kPa 의 세포입력압력으로 추출된 스페로이드의 지름과 활성도는 각각 $197{\pm}11.7Bm$, $80.3{\pm}7.7%$로 측정되었다. 제안된 칩은 스페로이드의 균일한 형성과 안정적 추출이 용이하여 스페로이드의 후처리에 적용될 수 있다.

The demand of on-chip total analyzing system with MEMS (micro electro mechanical system) bio/chemical sensor is rapidly increasing. In on-chip total analyzing system, to detect the bio/chemical products with submicron feature size, a filtration system with nano-filter is required. One of the conventional methods to fabricate nano-filter is to use direct patterning or RIE (reactive ion etching). However, those procedures are very costly and are not suitable fur mass production. In this study, we suggested new fabrication method for a nano-filter based on replication process, which is simple and low cost process. After the Si master was fabricated by laser interference lithography and reactive ion etching process, the polymeric mold was replicated by UV-imprint process. Metallic nano-filter was fabricated after removing the polymeric part of metal deposited polymeric mold. Finally, our fabrication method was applied to metallic nano-filter with $1{\mu}m$ pitch size and $0.4{\mu}m$ hole size for bacteria sensor application.

Background: Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the main causes of cervical cancer in women worldwide. The goal of the present study was to determine the prevalence and distribution of HPV genotypes in women from Saudi Arabia. Recently, several HPV detection methods have been developed, each with different sensitivities and specificities. Methods: In this study, total forty cervical samples were subjected to polymerase chain reaction and hybridization to BioFilmChip microarray assessment. Results: Human papillomavirus (HPV) infections were found in 43% of the specimens. The most prevalent genotypes were HPV 16 (30%) HPV 18 (8.0%) followed by type HPV 45, occurring at 5.0%. Conclusion: Our finding showed the HPV infection and prevalence is increasing at alarming rate in women of Saudi Arabia. There was no low risk infection detected in the tested samples. The BioFilmChip microarray detection system is highly accurate and suitable for detection of single and multiple infections, allowing rapid detection with less time-consumption and easier performance as compared with other methods.

This paper presents an excitatory CMOS neuron oscillator circuit design, which can synchronize two neuron-bursting patterns. The excitatory CMOS neuron oscillator is composed of CMOS neurons and CMOS excitatory synapses. And the neurons and synapses are connected into a close loop. The CMOS neuron is based on the Hindmarsh-Rose (HR) neuron model and excitatory synapse is based on the chemical synapse model. In order to fabricate using a 0.18 um CMOS standard process technology with 1.8V compatible transistors, both time and amplitude scaling of HR neuron model is adopted. This full-chip integration minimizes the power consumption and circuit size, which is ideal for motion control unit of the proposed bio-mimetic micro-robot. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed excitatory CMOS neuron oscillator performs the expected waveforms with scaled time and amplitude. The active silicon area of the fabricated chip is $1.1mm^2$ including I/O pads.

Microneedles (MNs) are being developed to overcome the limitations of the conventional hypodermic needle, e.g. the injection pain. In this study, we conducted an analysis of clinical pain and bleeding at the site of MN insertion and evaluated the insulin pharmacodynamic profile compared with parameters obtained with a conventional pen needle. MN insertion into the skin of 25 healthy adults or 15 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) revealed significantly less pain relative to a conventional hypodermic pen needle, thus reducing pain scores from $2.1{\pm}1.9$ to $21.3{\pm}1.4$ ($mean{\pm}standard$ deviation [SD]). Besides, no bleeding was observed when the MN was used. In the insulin pharmacodynamic assay, no significant differences were observed in the blood glucose-lowering effect between the pen needle and MN. Based on these results, the MN is expected to be a good substitute for conventional hypodermic pen needles and improve the quality of life of patients by significantly reducing the pain associated with insulin treatment.

$F{\ddot{o}}rster$ resonance energy transfer (FRET) is extremely sensitive to the separation distance between the donor and the acceptor which is ideal for probing such biological phenomena. Also, FRET-based probes have been developing for detecting an unamplified, low-abundance of target DNA. Here we describe the development of FRET based DNA sensor based on an accumulated QD system for detecting KRAS G12D mutation which is the most common mutation in cancer. The accumulated QD system consists of the polystyrene beads which surface is modified with carboxyl modified QDs. The QDs are sandwich-hybridized with DNA of a capture probe, a reporter probe with Texas-red, and a target DNA by EDC-NHS coupling. Because the carboxyl modified QDs are located closely to each other in the accumulated QDs, these neighboring QDs are enough to transfer the energy to the acceptor dyes. Therefore the FRET factor in the bead system is enhancing by the additional increase of 29.2% as compared to that in a single QD system. These results suggest that the accumulated nanobead probe with conjugated QDs can be used as ultrasensitive DNA nanosensors detecting the mutation in the various cancers.
