Thionin attached to a gold electrode modified with self-assembly of Mo[sub]6S[sub](9-X)I[sub]X nanowires for amplified electrochemical detection of natural DNA

Given the direct label free nature of the approach and the simplicity of the electronic detection, the aptamer conjugated MoSI NWs biosensor appears well suited for implementation in portable point of care microdevices directed at the rapid and sensitive detection of proteins and pathogens.

An array smell sensor based on the measurement of the junction resistence of nanowires with different metals

The present invention describes a multi-element array recognitive sensor (e-nose) based on the detection of analytes within nanowire/metals junctions. The contact impedance between a nanowire and a metal electrode changes when different molecules are adsorbed in the region of the line contact between the metal electrodes and the nanowire. The resistance of each element is different when different metal electrodes are used, which forms the basis for a multi-element sensor made with different materials, each of which giving a different response. The recognitive sensing properties are obtained by analyzing - using appropriate software - the response of the entire array and comparing it with the reference response for different analytes.
