Abstract Love wave surface acoustic wave (LSAW) sensors are crystal resonators known for theirhigh potential for biosensing applications due to their high sensitivity, real-time detection,and compatibility with microfluidic systems. Commercial LSAWdevices are costly, andmanufacturing them is even more expensive, making accessibility a significant challenge.Additionally, their use requires specialized systems, and with only a few manufacturersdominating […]

Abstract According to a USDA report, $161 billion worth of food products was not available for human consumption in 2010 due to food loss. One potential way to reduce food loss is to prevent damage to the food product during the freezing process. This study presents quantitative measurements of the two primary processes involved in

Abstract Tear viscosity is a critical property affecting tear distribution and ocular surface stability. While not widely established as a primary diagnostic marker, deviations from normal viscosity can impact ocular health, potentially contributing to conditions such as dry eye syndrome. Despite their importance, traditional viscometers require sample volumes that are not feasible to use with

Abstract Electric fields used in bone stimulation are based on the application of direct current, but some drawbacks exist, such as the need for an external power source. Piezoelectric poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) has attracted interest for biomedical applications due to its flexibility, low toxicity, and the piezoelectric response to mechanical stimuli. This study aimed to

Abstract Ice crystal growth and nucleation rate measurements are usually done using light microscopy in liquid and transparent samples. Yet, the understanding of important practical problems depends on monitoring ice growth inside solid materials, for example how rapid ice growth leads to structural damage of food, or how the final structure of cementitious materials is

Abstract Advances in sensors have revolutionized the biomedical engineering field, having an extreme affinity for specific analytes also providing an effective, real-time, point-of-care testing for an accurate diagnosis. Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM) is a wellestablished sensor that has been successfully applied in a broad range of applications to monitor and explore various surface interactions, in
