Recently, biological technology industry shows great development. Instruments and systems related biological technology have been developed actively. In this paper, we developed a new micro end-effector for biological cell manipulation. The existing micro end-effector for biological cell manipulation has not any force sensing mechanism. Usually, excessive contact force occurring when the end-effector and a cell collide might make a damage on the cell. However, unfortunately, user can not notice the condition in case of using the existing end-effector. In order to overcome we proposed the improved micro end-effector having a force sensing mechanism. This paper presents the design concepts of the new micro end-effector. We carried out calibration of the force sensor and tested the performance of the proposed micro end-effector. Through a series of experiments the new micro end-effector shows the possibility of application for precision biological cell manipulation such as DNA operation

Escherichia coli has developed soxRS regulon to defend against toxicity of superoxide radical. SoxR, superoxide sensor, is oxidized by superoxide-generating agents or nitric oxide and oxidized SoxR activates the transcription of soxS gene. In order to find out the trans-acting factors regulating SoxR activity in vivo, soxS：：lacZ single copy operon fusion construct was prepared and random Tn10 insertional mutatons were performed.(omitted)

This mini review summarizes some of the recent advances in machine-learning (ML)-driven chemical and biological sensors. Specific focus is on field-effect-transistor (FET)-based sensors with a description of their structures and detection mechanisms. Key ML techniques are briefly reviewed for an audience not familiar with the basic principles. We mainly discuss two aspects: (1) data analysis based on ML and (2) ML applied to sensor design. In conclusion, the challenges and opportunities for the advancement of ML-based sensors are briefly considered.

This study was conducted in order to develop a finger exoskeleton system using ionic polymer metal composites (IPMCs) as the actuator and sensor in a hybrid structure. To use the IPMC as an actuator producing large force, a first order transfer function was obtained using results from a block force for DC excitation that applied to two IPMCs of 20mm-width, 50mm-length, and 2.4mm thickness together. After which the validation of 200gf control with anti-windup PI controller was confirmed. A 5mm-width, 50mm-length, 0.6mm-thickness of IPMC was also modeled as a sensor for tip displacement. As a result, the IPMC sensor could been utilized as a trigger role for the actuator. Finally, an IPMC sensor and actuator were installed on the joint of a single DOF exoskeleton in the hybrid structure, and test for the control of 40gf of block force and predefined sequence of motion was performed.

본 연구에서는 폴리다이아세틸렌(polydiacetylene, PDA) 베시클을 이용하여 여러 가지 킬레이트제(chelating agent)를 쉽게 검출할 수 있는 센서 시스템을 개발하였다. 다른 센서들과 비교하여 PDA기반 센서는 많은 장점이 있다. 첫째로, 형광물질의 부착이 필요 없는 무표지 검출(label-free detection)이 가능하여 실험 절차가 간단하고 빠르다. 둘째로, PDA는 청색에서 외부 자극에 의해 적색으로 변화하는 색전이를 일으키므로 육안으로 쉽게 검출을 확인할 수 있었다. 끝으로, 특정 파장에서의 colorimetric response를 측정하여 각각의 킬레이트제의 농도에 따른 정량검출도 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 5가지 종류의 킬레이트제, 즉 EDTA, EGTA, NTA, DCTA, DTPA를 PDA 베시클과 반응시켰으며, 이중에서 EDTA, DCTA는 특히 강한 반응으로 PDA의 색전이를 유도함을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통하여 PDA 베시클을 사용하여 어떠한 기계나 동력을 사용하지 않고 색전이를 이용하여 킬레이트를 성공적으로 검출할 수 있음을 보여주었다.

The neck pain is fairly common occurance. Forward head posture and text neck are poor postures which may be related with neck pain but the evidence is not enough. We developed the wearable sensor which can assess the head & neck posture in daily life. Microprocessor, Bluetooth low energy, and 3-axis accelerometer, rechargeable battery and vibratior for reminding are used to implement the wearable sensor. Real-time algorithm to parameterize the posture for one epoch is implemented which classifies the posture in the epoch into three classed; dynamic, static_good posture, and static_poor posture. Also the algorithm makes reminding to its wearer to give them the prolonged poor posture is detected. The mean error of measurement was 1.2 degree. The correlation coefficient between neck angle and craniovertebral angle was 0.9 or higher in all cases. With the pilot study on text neck syndrome was also quatified. Average of neck angle were 74.3 degree during the listening in the classroom and 57.8 degree during the smartphoning. Using the wearable sensor suggested, the poor postures of forward head posture and neck neck can be detected in real-time which can remind the wearer according to his/her setting.

A fermentation system was supplemented with a device for the measurement of the durations of alkali pump feeding for automatic pH control and an A/D convertor for precise monitoring of pH value by computer. A software program was developed to measure buffer capacities from the pH signal and the pH control signal during fermentation. By measuring the buffer capacity on-line, levels of acetic acid were estimated by a software sensor using pH signal in a fermentation process of E.coli growing in a minimal medium. The measured values of acetic acid showed correlation to those of estimated by the software sensor. Lacitic acid production was also successfully estimated by the values of buffer capacities measured on-line.

센서네트워크 기술의 발전에 따라 그 활용 범위는 가축에까지 확대 되고 있는 추세이다. 그러나 대단위 가축에게 실시되기에는 비용이나, 효율 등에서 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 대단위로 가축의 생체 데이터 측정을 시뮬레이션을 통해 구현하였으며, 실제와 보다 유사하게 하기 위해 전파모델을 축사환경에 맞게 변경하여 시뮬레이션 하였다. 도출된 결론을 통해 축우 통제를 통한 수집 시나리오가 필요함을 알 수 있었고, 효과적인 라우팅 프로토콜의 수정도 필요함을 알 수 있었다.

Cu (II) detection is of great importance owing to its significant function in various biological processes. In this report, we developed a novel coumarin-based chemosensor bearing the salicylaldimine unit (2) for $Cu^{2+}$ selective detection. The results from fluorescence spectra demonstrated that the sensor could selectively recognize $Cu^{2+}$ over other metal cations and the detection limit is as low as $0.2{\mu}M$. Moreover, the confocal fluorescence imaging in HepG2 cells illustrated its potential for biological applications.
