Abstract: An aerosol generating system includes: a cavity configured to accommodate at least a portion of a cigarette; a first induction coil located around the cavity; a second induction coil located around the cavity and connected to the first induction coil in parallel; and a battery configured to supply an alternating current to the first induction coil and the second induction coil, wherein the first induction coil and the second induction coil have different resonant frequencies.

Abstract: A method for detecting biomaterial by means of a dye having a linear upconversion fluorescent property is provided. The method includes the steps of: i) preparing a fluorophore having a linear upconversion fluorescent property; ii) reacting the fluorophore and biomaterial to obtain a reaction complex thereof; iii) exciting the reaction complex by means of a light source having a longer wavelength than the maximum light-emitting wavelength of the fluorophore; and iv) detecting and measuring the light-emitting signal having a shorter wavelength than the wavelength of the excited light emitted from the excited reaction complex. A system and a kit for detecting biomaterial using a dye having a linear upconversion fluorescent property are also provided.
