Abstract: Semiconductor devices can include features to apply electrical stimulation to liquids in which material is present and to measure the response to the electrical stimulation.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and systems for reducing interference by one or more bubbles in a sensing assembly by determining a first property of the solution and using the first property in a removal step.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and systems for reducing interference by one or more bubbles in a sensing assembly. Bubble prevention arrangements can use surfaces located in a fluid channel to provide surfaces with higher affinity for bubbles relative to the other surfaces so that the surface retains one or more bubbles within a bubble collection region; and/or to divert at least a portion of any bubbles passing through an opening in the fluid channel. Additionally or alternatively, bubble prevention arrangements comprise an agitation device configured to agitate liquid within the fluid channel. Additionally or alternatively, bubble prevention arrangements are configured to displace one or more bubbles in a region on or adjacent the sensing surface so as to reduce interference of one or more bubbles on the sensing surface.

Abstract: A sensor assembly for determining a property of an analyte in a sample, where a modification unit comprising a set of modification electrodes with at least a first modification electrode is provided adjacent or on a sensing element, which includes a capture species, and which modification unit is configured modify a property of at least a portion of a sample received on the sensing element.

Abstract: Methods and systems for determining a property of an analyte in a sample, wherein a field is applied to a sensing surface to cause an analyte to debind from a surface, and subsequently the field is modified or removed to allow the analyte to rebind.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides sensor assemblies comprising a plurality of mixing species provided adjacent or on the sensing surface, wherein each mixing species comprises a polynucleotide chain and wherein each mixing species is anchored to the sensor assembly; and an actuation unit configured to move at least a part of each mixing species in a plurality of directions. Alternatively or additionally, the polynucleotide chain comprises DNA and has a length of at least 10 nm.
