研究目的
To develop a novel, cost-effective, and disposable wireless sensor for detecting bacteria in body fluids, foods, and medicines using gelatin-based multi-layer films and passive RFID tags.
研究成果
The study successfully developed gelatin-based multi-layer films enhanced with MWCNTs and Au nanoparticles for use as disposable wireless biosensors. These films demonstrated the ability to detect trypsin, simulating bacterial presence, through changes in dielectric constant measured by RFID tag frequency shifts. The mechanical properties of the films were significantly improved by the incorporation of MWCNTs and Au nanoparticles. The proposed biosensor has potential applications in biomedicine, food industry, and other fields requiring rapid detection of bacteria.
研究不足
The study's limitations include the mechanical strength of gelatin films, which may not withstand sudden or gradual stretches in real-world applications. Additionally, the films' stability at high temperatures was not tested, limiting their use in high-temperature environments.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved the preparation of gelatin-based multi-layer films using a room temperature solution casting method. The films were designed to detect bacteria through changes in dielectric constant, measured by the frequency shift of RFID tags.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Gelatin type B from bovine skin, MWCNTs, and trypsin from porcine pancreas were used. The samples were characterized using FTIR, XRD, TGA, FESEM, tensile tests, and VNA analyzes.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment included a BRUKER?TENSOR27 spectrometer for FTIR, Philips CM30 TEM, XMU 3Mira FESEM, PW1800 diffractometer for XRD, TGA Q500 instrument, Santam testing machine for mechanical tests, and DG8-SAQ vector network analyzer for VNA measurements.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The gelatin films were prepared by casting gelatin solutions at ambient temperature. The films were then characterized and tested for their ability to detect trypsin, simulating bacterial digestion.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The data from FTIR, XRD, TGA, FESEM, tensile tests, and VNA measurements were analyzed to evaluate the films' properties and their effectiveness as biosensors.
