  • Publication number: 20230279473
    Abstract: An apparatus for a lateral flow nucleic acid assay with an integrated pore-based detector, which has the potential to detect pathogens, both microbial and viral, in aqueous samples in approximately 5 minutes or less without nucleic acid amplification or optical components. The detector is based on an electromechanical signal transduction mechanism that enables low-cost detection of DNA/RNA at ultralow concentrations (down to about 10 M to about 19 M). The scheme relies on the use of charge-neutral peptide nucleic acid (PNA) capture probe conjugated to polystyrene beads. The PNA-beads acquire substantial negative charge upon capture of target pathogenic DNA/RNA and become mobile in an electric field. Upon application of a bias voltage of around 1 V to 2 V, the PNA-beads with hybridized target are directed electrophoretically to a smaller diameter pore. Subsequent pore blockage results in a strong, sustained drop in measured ionic current through the pore.

  • Patent number: 10998636
    Abstract: An antenna includes a coupling device having first and second coupling plates, e.g. rectangular plates, connected at opposite ends of a conducting bar that acts as a stripline signal feed. A radio-frequency (RF) source may be connected to the conducting bar via a signal feed network. Multiple instances of the device may be arranged vertically in an antenna array assembly to operate together such that the radiation pattern of the antenna assembly is generally directed horizontally. The array may operate to provide a relatively flat azimuthal gain up to 180° across the UHF or VHF bands.
