    Background: Microfluidic devices have evolved into low-cost, simple, and powerful analytical tool platforms. Herein, an electrochemically-based microfluidic nanobiosensor array for monoplex and multiplex detection of physiologically relevant analytes is reviewed. Unlike other analyte detection methods, microfluidics-based embedded electrochemical nanobiosensors are portable, custom electrochemical readers for signal reading. Methods: Microfluidic devices and electrochemical sensors can be integrated into monoplex or multiplex systems. The integrated system is simple to use and sensitive, and so has great potential as a powerful tool for profiling immune-mediated treatment responses in real time. It may also be developed further as a point-of-care diagnostic device for conducting near-patient tests using biological samples. Therefore, using mutiplex analysis, a biosensor array may detect multiple analytes in a sample solution and provide different outputs for each analyte. A microfluidic electrochemical nanobiosensor, for example, can detect urine glucose, lactate, and uric acid. The microfluidic array of integrated nanobiosensors and electrochemical sensors enables fast and cost-effective selection of high-quality and statistically significant diagnostic data at the point of care. The multiplex analytical test is an important molecular tool for academic research as well as clinical diagnosis. Although key approaches for analysing numerous analytes have been developed, none of them are suitable for point-of-care diagnostics, especially in situations with limited resources. Significant findings: In this study, monoplex and multiplex microfluidic assays for rapid measurement of single and multiple analytes at the point of care are presented. Since this test can analyse both single and multiple analytes, it is exceptionally specific, easy to use, and inexpensive. The ability of integrated electrochemical-based microfluidic devices with single channel and multiple channels systems to perform monoplex and multiplex analysis simultaneously and independently is the novelty of this review.

    Amyloid fibrils are associated with different neurodegenerative diseases, a final product of several protein aggregation pathways. Parkinson's disease is a type of amyloidosis, characterized by the accumulation and propagation of amyloid fibrils of alpha-synuclein. The detection of fibrils at low concentrations is critical for the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease. We report a novel technique for the selective detection of amyloid fibrils through a dipole moment on a dielectrode surface. A sensitive dielectrode sensor for detecting aggregation of alpha synuclein and works by interacting an antibody on two-electrode surface functionalized gold interdigitated electrode. For the physical characterization of the sensing surface and finger electrodes, high-power microscope, scanning electron microscope, and 3D-profilormeter were used. Electrical characterization was performed on the sensing surface by using Keithley 6487 picoammeter. Based on the stability analysis with various electrolytes solutions, the sensor was found to be stable from pH 3. Further, under optimal circumstances, a linear range of alpha synuclein fibril detection was from 100 aM to 100 pM [y = 5E-06x + 5E-06; R² = 0.9724], and the limit of detection was estimated to be 100 aM based on S/N = 3. This study was further anchored by molecular docking analysis with synuclein peptide (47−56). We predict that advancements in this direction will assist in clarifying the complex process posed by Parkinson's disease.

    Nano-silver microcavity enhanced UV GaN light emitter
    We report results of measurements that help to clarify the role of silver in the reflection of UV emission light from GaN. A GaN as an active layer was sandwiched between two silver metal reflectors. GaN layer on sapphire showed a photoluminescence (PL) peak around 364 nm and its full width half maximum was about 6.7 nm. Two types of microcavity, were fabricated: half-cavity GaN/sapphire/silver and full-cavity silver/ GaN/sapphire/silver. Photoluminescence measurements showed a two-fold intensity enhancement in half-cavity back mirror. In the full cavity samples, the amplitude of the photoluminescence is enhanced ten times when we used 50 nm silver as a front mirror. A tremendous more than 16-fold enhancement is obtained when silver mirror of 25 nm was used as a front mirror. The increase in the photoluminescence intensity is explained in terms of competition between increasing absorption in the cavity, silver surface plasmon coupling and increasing optical field-enhancement due to resonator.
