Abstract
Effect of Vacuum Annealing on Tensile Mechanical Characteristics of Au Bonding Wires
Highlights
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS, known as bacterial endotoxin) is the main constituent of the outer membrane of gram-negative bacteria and mainly responsible for the integrity of the membrane and its low permeability, protecting the bacteria from chemical attacks by antibiotics.[1]
Several biosensors have been designed on the basis of the interactions between lectins and glycoproteins.[23,24,25,26,27] Concanavalin A (Con A) lectin is a carbohydrate-binding protein that recognizes α-D-glucose and α-Dmannose groups and is one of the most commonly studied lectins that exist as a dimer below pH 5.5 and a tetramer between pHs 5.8 and 7.0
As gram-negative bacteria constantly shed LPS into their environment, it is an attractive target for detection.[1,4] Utilizing electrochemistry, we have incorporated this biological interaction into a functional sensor that can help inform clinicians
Summary
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS, known as bacterial endotoxin) is the main constituent of the outer membrane of gram-negative bacteria and mainly responsible for the integrity of the membrane and its low permeability, protecting the bacteria from chemical attacks by antibiotics.[1]. It is considered that the dispersion of metal NPs on G sheets potentially provides a new way of developing novel catalytic and optoelectronic materials. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have recently been recognized as one of the most promising and efficient electrochemical and luminescence catalysts.[21,22] The incorporation of AuNPs and G always results in promising properties for sensor layers, especially the electrodeposition of AuNPs on the G surface because of their large surface to volume ratio and promising catalytic characteristics. We found that the in situ electrodeposition of NPs on a G and Nafion composite could provide an efficient biosensing surface for LPS detection with highly efficient electrochemical characteristics. As gram-negative bacteria constantly shed LPS into their environment, it is an attractive target for detection.[1,4] Utilizing electrochemistry, we have incorporated this biological interaction into a functional sensor that can help inform clinicians
