Optical Microarray Biosensor Combing optical nano-resonators with stimuli-responsive hydrogel thin films offers a promising solution towards multimodal detections of analytes. The optical signal from the microscale array can accurately determine the temperature, pH, gas, and target cells. Impedance based MRSA Biosensor MRSA is a highly infectious bacteria with potentially life-threatening consequences. Current MRSA detection methods are slow and expensive. An impedance based biosensor is designed to achieve quick an effective MRSA detection by immobilizing PBP-2A antibody on gold electrodes.
