Immunoassay of botulinum toxin (BTX) B type was investigated using two typed of biosensors: light addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS) and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor. Urease-tagged and immuno-filtration capture method have been used for LAPS. Tag-free and direct binding real-time detection method have been used for SPR sensor. The detection limit of sandwich assay format with LAPS was 10 ng/ml, which was the lowest among methods tested. SPR has the advantage of being more convenient because tag-free direct binding assay can be used and reaction time was reduced, regardless of low sensitivity. This result shows that sandwich assay format with LAPS can be used as an alternative method of BTX mouse bioassay which is known as the most sensitive method for the detection of BTX.

본 연구에서는 특정한 생물학적 의미를 갖는 물질들간의 결합 및 분리과정을 실시간에 측정하기 위해 빠른 응답특성과 높은 감도를 갖는 표면 플라즈몬 공명 (Surface Plasmon Resonance, SPR) 현상을 이용한 센서 시스템을 제작하였다. SPR 시스템의 프리즘 표면에 일정 두께의 금 박막이 진공증착된 센서칩을 두고 이 아래에 위치한 시료충전셀에 살모넬라 (salmonella) 항체를 주입시켜 항체가 센서칩 표면에서 자기집합 (self-assembly) 함에 따라 공명각이 변화하는 현상을 측정하였다. 이후 분석대상물질인 살모넬라 항원을 주입하여 항체와의 결합 상태를 일정 시간 간격을 두고 공명각의 변화로서 측정하고 이 결과를 분석하였다. 또한 human Immunglobulin G (hIgG)를 항원으로 한 항원-항체 반응 역시 살모넬라의 경우와 같은 방법으로 측정하였다. 그 결과 살모넬라의 항체는 센서칩 표면에서 약 10분 동안 자기집합하고 반응이 포화됨을 공명각의 변화를 통해 볼 수 있었으며, hIgG의 항체의 경우는 약 60분 동안 반응을 하고 포화됨을, 그리고 살모넬라와 hIgG의 항원 (분석대상물질) 은 모두 각각의 항체에 대해서 약 1분 이내에 결합하고 포화됨을 볼 수 있었다.

A portable surface plasmon resonance(SPR) based immunosensor using thiolated protein G and protein G was developed for the detection of immunoglobulin G(IgG). The protein G has specific affinity with Fc fragment of IgG and was thiolated by 2-Iminothiolane for introduction of thiol groups. Anti-IgG, bovine serum albumin(BSA), and IgG have been sequently injected after surface modification of gold sensor chip with protein G and thiolated protein G. The output signal was increased with the injection of each protein and the actual signal was measured by subtracting signal of reference channel from signal of sample injected channel. The experimental results showed the higher detection capability of IgG using thiolated protein G compared with protein G. From these results, we can conclude that the current surface modification technique and the portable SPR sensor system can be applied to various immunosensors for diagnosis.

The problem considered in this paper is about the collocation of sensor and actuator for the active control of sound and vibration. It is well-known that a point collocated sensor-actuator pair offers an unconditional stability with very high performance when it is used with a direct velocity feedback (DVFB) control, because the pair has strictly positive real (SPR) property. In order to utilize this SPR characteristics, a matched piezoelectric sensor and actuator pair is considered. but this pair suffers from the in-plane motion coupling problem with the out-of-plane motion due to the piezo sensor and actuator interaction. This coupling phnomenon limits the stability and performance of the matched pair with DVFBcontrol. As a new alternative, a point sensor and distributed piezoelectric actuator pair is also considered, which provides SPR property in all frequency range when the pair is implemented on a clamped-clapmed beam. The use of this sensor-actuator pair is highly expected for the applications to more practical active control of sound and vibration systems with the DVFB control strategy.

The detection of C-reactive protein(CRP) using self-assembled monolayer(SAM) was investigated by a portable surface plasmon resonance(SPR) sensor system. The CRP is a biomarker for the possible cardiovascular disease. The SAM was formed on gold(Au) surface to anchor the monoclonal antibody of CRP(anti-CRP) for detection of CRP. Sequence injection of the anti-CRP and bovine serum albumin(BSA) into the sensor system has been carried out immobilize the antibody and to prevent non-specific binding. The portable SPR system has two flow channels: one for the sample measurements and the other for the reference. The output SPR signal was increased with the injection of the anti-CRP, BSA and CRP due to binding of the proteins on the sensor chip. The valid output SPR signals was linearly related to the critical range of the CRP concentration. The experimental results showed the feasibility of the portable SPR system with newly developed SAM to diagnose a risk of the future cardiovascular events.

Label-free detection of biomolecular interactions was performed using BioFET(Biologically sensitive Field-Effect Transistor) and SPR(Surface Plasmon Resonance). Qualitative information on the immobilization of an anti-IgG and antibody-antigen interaction was gained using the SPR analysis system. The BioFET was used to explore the pI value of the protein and to monitor biomolecular interactions which caused an effective charge change at the gate surface resulting in a drain current change. The results show that the BioFET can be a useful monitoring tool for biomolecular interactions and is complimentary to the SPR system.

The characteristics of a bimetallic surface plasmon resonance (SPR) chip were investigated to detect a tumor biomarker, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). The linewidth and the tangential slope of the reflectance curve of the bimetallic SPR chip was compared with those of the reflectance curve of a conventional gold (Au) SPR chip. The changes in reflectance in response to the variation in CEA in the critical concentration range were analyzed at an angle where the tangential slope of the reflectance curve was maximum. From linear regression analysis, the sensitivity of the bimetallic SPR chip with respect to the CEA in critical concentration was obtained.

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) has been widely used for biological and chemical sensing applications. The present study investigates numerically the optical characteristics for the single Au film and bimetallic Ag/Au film SPR configurations by using the multiple beam interference matrix (MBIM) method. We use the prism coupling method, especially Kretschmann configuration for excitation of surface plasmon wave (SPW). The estimated results of reflectance, phase shift and magnetic field intensity enhancement factor are provided for finding out the optimum configuration with high sensitivity for SPR measurement. As a result, the optimum thicknesses are found to be 52 nm for a single Au film and 5 nm to 36 nm for bimetallic Ag-Au film. From the comparison of full width half maximum (FWHM) values for reflectance, phase shift, and enhancement of magnetic field intensity, it is concluded that the highest sensitivity can be obtained when using the phase shift for SPR sensor.

This study was performed to fabricate a batch-type SPR biosensing system using a thiolated E. coli antibody coupling, and to explore the feasibility of real-time detection of E. coii in a stagnant sample solution. In advance. “O” and “K” antigenic serotype E. coli antibodies were thiolated with sulfo-LC-SPDP and dithiothreitol, and immobilized by chemisorption in the gold surface of compact SPR sensors. When the SPR biosensor immobilized with E. coli antibody monitored a E. coli solution, it took 3 to 5 min to stabilize. The SPR biosensing system developed in this study was able to detect E. coli in the range above 10$^4$ CFU/mL at the 0.05 significant level. Also, the SPR biosensor had possibility to significantly detect E. coli in the range of 10$^2$ to 10$^4$ CFU/mL in E. coli solutions. Meanwhile, when the SPR biosensor immobilized with 5. coli antibody was cleaned with NaOH solutions, its ability to detect E. coli largely decreased due to wash-out of the immobilized antibody. In order to reuse the SPR sensor, it should be antibody-immobilized newly.

A smart panel with structural sensors and actuators for minimizing noise radiation or transmission is described in the paper with the concept of active structural acoustical control. The sensors and actuators are both quadratically shaped piezoelectric polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF) Polymer films to implement a volume velocity sensor and uniform force actuator respectively. They are collocated on either side of the panel to take advantage of direct velocity feedback(DVFB) strategy, which can guarantee a robust stability and high performance as long as the sensor-actuator response is strictly positive real(SPR). However, the measured sensor-actuator response of the panel showed unexpected result with non-SPR property. In the paper, the reason of the non-SPR property is investigated by theoretical analysis, computer simulation and experimental verification. The investigation reveals that the arrangement of collocated piezoelectric PVDF sensor and actuator pair on a panel is not relevant to get a high feedback gain and good performance with DVFB strategy.
