Here, the rapid detection of Salmonella typhimurium by a portable surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor in which the beam from a diode laser is modulated by a rotating mirror is reported. Using this system, immunoassay based on lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-specific monoclonal anti-Salmonella antibody was performed. For the purpose of orientation-controlled immobilization of antibodies on the SPR chip surface, the cysteine-mediated immobilization method, which is based on interaction between a gold surface and a thiol group (-SH) of cysteine, was adopted. As a result, using the portable SPR-based immunoassay, we detected S. typhimurium in the range from 10^7 CFU/mL to 10^9 CFU/mL within 1 hour. The results indicate that the portable SPR system could be potentially applied for general laboratory detection as well as on-site monitoring of foodborne, clinical, and environmental agents of interest.

We have investigated the grating coupled surface plasmon resonance (GC-SPR) sensors using ZnO nano-grating structures to enhance the sensitivity of an SPR sensor. The GC-SPR sensors were analyzed using the finite-difference time-domain method. The optimum resonance angles of 49 degrees are obtained in the 150 nm wide grating structure with a period of 300 nm for the ZnO thickness of 30 nm. Then, the ZnO nano-grating patterns were fabricated by using laser interference lithography. The measured resonance angle of nano-grating patterns was around 49 degrees. Here, an enhanced evanescent field is obtained due to the surface plasmon on the edge of the bandgap when the ZnO grating structures are used to excite the surface palsmon.

Biosensors exploit the specific binding between recognition molecule on the biosensor surface and target molecule in analyte and are used in the detection of specific biomolecules such as protein, DNA, cell, virus, etc., with a view towards developing analytical devices. Recently, application field of biosensors have been expanding from diagnosis to biodefense because they can basically serve as high performance devices. This review describes the basic information of biosensors including definition, classification, and operational principle. Moreover, we introduce micro/nano technology-based biosensors with better detection performance than traditional method and their application examples.

The effects of $O_2$ plasma ashing process for surface treatment of nano-wire Bio-FET were investigated. In order to evaluate the plasma damage introduced by $O_2$ plasma ashing, a back-gate biasing method was developed and the electrical characteristics as a function of $O_2$ plasma power were measured. Serious degradations of electrical characteristics of nano-wire Bio-FET were observed when the plasma power is higher than 50 W. For curing the plasma damages, a forming gas anneal (2 %, $H_2/N_2$) was carried out at $400^{\circ}C$. As a result, the electrical characteristics of nano-wire Bio-FET were considerably recovered.

We present a novel microcantilever device with nano-interdigitated electrodes (nano-IDEs) and DNA selective immobilization on the nano-IDEs for biosensing applications. Using the nano-IDEs and cyclic voltammetric methods, we have achieved selective immobilization of DNA with submicrometer spatial resolution on a freestanding microcantilever. $70{\sim}500\;nm$-wide gold (Au) nano-IDEs are fabricated on a low-stress SiNx microcantilever with dimensions of $100{\sim}600\;{\mu}m$ in length, and $15{\sim}60\;{\mu}m$ in width, with a $0.5\;{\mu}m$ thickness using electron beam lithography and bulk micromachining. Streptavidin is selectively deposited on one side of the nano-IDEs using cyclic voltammetry at a scan rate of 0.1 V/s with a range of $-0.2{\sim}0.7\;V$ during $1{\sim}5$ cycles. The selective deposition of dsDNA is confirmed by fluorescence microscopy after labeling with YOYO-1 dye.

Antibacterial activity of essential oils (Tea tree, Chamomile, Eucalyptus) on Staphylococcus aureus growth was evaluated as well as the essential oil-loaded alginate beads. The binding interactions between the cell and the essential oils were measured using an optical biosensor. The antibacterial activity of the essential oils to the cell was evaluated with their binding interaction and affinity. The antibacterial activity appeared in the order of Tea Tree>Chamomile>Eucalyptus, in comparison of the inhibition effects of the cell growth to the essential oils. The association rate constant and affinity of the cell binding on Tea Tree essential oil were $5.0{\times}10^{-13}\;ml/(CFU{\cdot}s)$ and $5.0{\times}10^5\;ml/CFU$, respectively. The affinity of the cell binding on Tea Tree was about twice higher than those on the other essential oils. It might be possible that an effective antibacterial activity of Tea Tree essential oil was derived from its strong adhesive ability to the cell, more so than those of the other essential oils.

최근 국내 수질오염에 대한 높은 관심과 개선의 필요성이 요구되는 가운데 물 환경 속의 약물의 잔류는 인체를 포함한 생태계의 약물 내성을 일으킨다는 점에서 지속적인 모니터링의 필요성이 제기되고 있다. 특히 약물 중 큰 비율을 차지하는 항생제의 잔류는 하천을 통해 빠르게 생태계의 내성균 확산을 일으킬 수 있다는 점에서 매우 큰 위험요소라고 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 총설에서는 물 환경 속의 항생제 분석이 실시간으로 가능한 신속한 센싱 플랫폼 기반 기술을 서술하고자 하며 이와 관련한 국내/외 연구현황과 발전가능성 및 그에 따른 산업/경제적 효과에 대해 논의하고자 한다.

본 연구에서는 8족 금속 원소인 오스뮴을 중심금속으로 일차아민을 포함하고 있는 피리딘 (pyridine) 화합물을 배위시켜 착화합물을 합성하였다. 합성된 오스뮴 착화합물은 $[Os(dme-bpy)_2(ap-im)Cl]^{+/2+}$을 순환전압전류법을 포함한 다양한 전기화학분석법을 이용하여 전기적인 성질을 조사하였다. 또한 합성된 일차 아민을 갖는 오스뮴 착화합물을 이용하여 당 측정용 바이오센서를 제작하기 위하여 금 나노입자(Cold nano-particles)를 전기적 흡착방법을 이용하여 스크린 인쇄방법으로 만든 탄소반죽 전극 (Screen Printed Carbon Electrodes, SPEs) 위에 고정화를 시켰다. 당과 당 분해효소(Glucose Oxidase, GOx)를 혼합하여 발생하는 산화촉매전류를 확인하였고, 당 농도에 따라 변화하는 산화촉매전류의 양도 확인하였다. 새롭게 만들어진 바이오센서는 1 mM 과 같은 낮은 농도에서 감응할 수 있는 바이오센서에 응용할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 전기화학적 바이오센서의 포도당 감지능을 높이고자 금 나노 입자가 분산된 다중벽탄소나노튜브(multi-walled carbon nanotube, MWCNTs)에 CuO를 도입하였다. 금 나노 입자로 인하여 나노 클러스터(cluster) 형상을 갖는 CuO가 합성되었으며, 이는 포도당 감지능력에 매우 큰 영향을 나타내었다. 0.1 mole의 CuO가 합성되었을 때 CuO/Au@MWCNTs 나노복합재를 전극재료로서 바이오센서는 $504.1{\mu}A\;mM^{-1}cm^{-2}$으로 가장 높은 민감도를 보여주었으며, 이 값은 MWCNTs만을 전극으로 이용할 때보다 약 4배 정도 컸다. 또한, 0-10 mM의 긴 선형 구간(linear range)과 0.008 mM의 낮은 LoD (limit of detection) 값을 보여주었다. 이러한 실험 결과들은 CuO/Au@MWCNTs 나노복합재가 CuO를 이용한 다른 전기화학적 바이오센서보다 우수하다는 것을 입증하였으며, 이는 나노 클러스터 형상의 CuO가 포도당 감지에서 전기화학적 반응에 유리하기 때문으로 사료된다.
