  • Publication number: 20180217069
    Abstract: A method and a system for detection of presence or absence of analytes in fluids, the method comprising the steps of: a) contacting a fluid sample and a plurality of nanoparticles, the nanoparticles being functionalized with a selective ligand, the contact of the fluid sample with the nanoparticles being under conditions such that, the nanoparticles aggregate selectively on surface of their target analyte, forming a nanoparticle-analyte complex, the aggregation promoting the concentration of the nanoparticles on the surface of the target analyte; b) subjecting a fluid mixture of the fluid sample and the plurality of nanoparticles to SERS; c) measuring at least a SERS signal associated with the fluid mixture; d) spectrally analysing the at least one SERS signal of step c); e) recognizing at least one defined SERS spectrum of the nanoparticle-analyte complex, through a SERS signal enhanced by the at least one narrow inter-nanoparticle gap.

  • Publication number: 20180001319
    Abstract: An analysis device and an analysis apparatus for identification of analytes in fluids applying the SERS effect which provides a safe way to perform analysis, avoiding an accidental cross-contamination without the use of disinfectant products; the analysis device comprising a casing enclosing a sample region for receiving a fluid sample, and a nanoparticle region for storing at least a nanoparticle fluid; the sample region and the nanoparticle region being in fluid communication each other through a passage; driving means in fluid communication with the passage; a mixing region in fluid communication with the passage; and the casing being adapted to allow an incident monochromatic light from an external source to strike on the mixing region, and a reflected light from the mixing region to leave the casing.

  • Publication number: 20170065782
    Abstract: A device (1) for the ventilation of a human being or animal which comprises a dome (2) having a cavity (2a), which dome (2) is attached to a laryngeal ring (3) for sealing the human being or animal's internal airways, at least one oxygen tube (4) that connects to the cavity (2a) of the dome (2), for allowing oxygen or gases to enter or leave the human being or animal's internal airways and at least one laryngeal aspiration tube (5), different from the oxygen tube (4), that also connects to the cavity (2a) of the dome (2), for allowing air and/or secretions to leave the human being or animal's internal airways.

  • Publication number: 20160008562
    Abstract: A laryngeal mask that comprises a first element which is a rigid hollow tube essentially in the form of “J”, and which has a lengthwise opening along its entire length, and a second element that comprises a flexible tube, also essentially in the form of a “J”, intended to be housed in the lengthwise opening of the first element, and which can be separated from it. This provides a configuration for a laryngeal mask that can change from having rigid properties to flexible ones at the doctor's will, without the need to interrupt the patient's supply of oxygen at any time.
