3D Bioplotter Research Papers

The conventional approach for diagnosing high risk metabolic disorders, such as chronic kidney disease (CKD), involves drawing a blood sample, which necessitates access to a centralized facility, making it undesirable for frequent urea monitoring. Alternative biological fluids, such as saliva, have demonstrated potential as non-invasive mediums for CKD monitoring due to the strong correlation between blood urea and salivary urea levels, indicating their suitability for point-of-care test kits. In this study, we present an innovative chemiresistive paper-based enzymatic sensor that utilizes a combination of urease and polystyrene sulfonate (PSS) to measure urea. This sensor detects urea over a broad concentration…

Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas sensing and monitoring have gained prominence for applications such as smart food packaging, environmental monitoring of greenhouse gases, and medical diagnostic tests. Although CO2 sensors based on metal oxide semiconductors are readily available, they often suffer from limitations such as high operating temperatures (>250 °C), limited response at elevated humidity levels (>60% RH), bulkiness, and limited selectivity. In this study, we designed a chemiresistive sensor for CO2 detection to overcome these problems. The sensing material of this sensor consists of a CO2 switchable polymer based on N-3-(dimethylamino)propyl methacrylamide (DMAPMAm) and methoxyethyl methacrylate (MEMA) [P(D-co-M)], and diethylamine.…
