  • Publication number: 20230408499
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are devices, apparatus, systems, methods and kits for performing immunoassay tests on a sample. The A sensing apparatus is provided for detecting a plurality of different target analytes in a sample. The apparatus may comprise an array of sensing devices provided on a substrate, each sensing device in the array comprising a working electrode having (1) semiconducting nanostructures disposed thereon and (2) a capture reagent coupled to the semiconducting nanostructures that selectively binds to a different target analyte in the sample. The apparatus may also comprise sensing circuitry that (1) simultaneously detects changes to electron and ion mobility and charge accumulation in the array of sensing devices when the capture reagents in the array of sensing devices selectively bind to the plurality of different target analytes, and (2) determines the presence and concentrations of the plurality of different target analytes in the sample based on the detected changes.

  • Patent number: 10006882
    Abstract: An example biosensor is provided and includes a semiconductor sensing element, a first electrode and a second electrode located on a first plane of the sensing element with a first electric field being applied thereacross, a third electrode located on a second plane of the sensing element parallel to and removed from the first plane with a second electric field being applied across the first electrode and the third electrode perpendicular to the first electric field, and a dielectric substrate having a first portion that constrains a fluid including an analyte on a surface of the sensing element, and a second portion that facilitates dielectric separation of the fluid from the electrodes. The mutually perpendicular electric fields facilitate adjusting a height of a fluid-sensor interface comprising an electrical double layer in the fluid enabling detection and characterization of the analyte.
