BioCoder is a domain-specific language by which chemists and biologists can express experimental protocols in a manner that is unambiguous and clearly repeatable. This paper presents a software toolchain that converts a protocol specified in a restricted subset of BioCoder to a technology-specific description of the protocol, targeting flow-based microfluidic large-scale integration (mLSI) chips. The technology-specific description can then be used to either: (1) execute the protocol on a capable chip; or (2) to derive the architecture of a new mLSI chip that can execute the protocol.

A pattern recognition based classification method is proposed to estimate wrist flexion angles from electrical activities of forearm muscles. Spatial movement data and multi-channel myoelectric signals from forearm muscles were collected experimentally during periodic wrist flexion and extension movements using an ultrasound based movement analyser system. The recorded marker coordinates were transformed into joint angles using OpenSim, an open source simulation tool for biomechanical analysis. EMG data were segmented according to specific ranges of the calculated wrist flexion angle to form different classes for pattern recognition. The parameter space of the used classification algorithm was explored with a selected subset of values to find the optimal parameter vector giving maximal classification performance.

The difficulty of detecting small quantities of arsenic in water currently threatens the health of millions of people worldwide, as long-term exposure to arsenic has been associated with both cancerous and noncancerous health risks. Existing technologies make it possible to very accurately quantify arsenic levels in water; however the expense, extensive training, and off-site analysis required by these methods impede wide scale-use. Electrochemical detection in a microfluidic platform offers many advantages, such as portability, minimal use of instrumentation, and ready integration with electronics. Toward a solution to water quality interventions, we have demonstrated an affordable and point-of-use microfluidic platform capable of detecting trace amounts of arsenic in groundwater samples. Our electrochemical sensor utilizes a three-electrode system with carbon, silver, and silver/silver chloride ink electrodes printed onto a disposable plastic substrate. A small water sample is applied to the electrodes and the current response is quickly captured, returning quantitative information to the user, which alleviates the lag times and imprecise colorimetric assays that encumber current arsenic detection systems.
检测水中微量砷的困难目前威胁着全世界数百万人的健康,因为长期接触砷与癌症和非癌症健康风险有关。现有技术可以非常准确地量化水中的砷含量;然而,这些方法所需要的费用、广泛的培训和非现场分析阻碍了大规模使用。微流控平台中的电化学检测具有许多优点,如便携性,仪器的使用最少,以及与电子器件的集成。为了解决水质干预问题,我们已经展示了一种经济实惠的微流控平台,能够检测地下水样本中的微量砷。我们的电化学传感器采用三电极系统,将碳、银和银/氯化银油墨电极印刷在一次性塑料基板上。将一个小水样应用到电极上,并迅速捕获电流响应,将定量信息返回给用户,从而减轻了滞后时间和不精确的比色分析,这些分析妨碍了当前的砷检测系统。

Selecting a safe power level for an indoor implanted UWB wireless biotelemetry link 为室内植入的超宽带无线生物遥测链路选择安全功率水平

In this paper we analyze a wireless biotelemetry link for an implanted UWB antenna located in the upper arm of a human. We use finite element analysis to characterize the specific absorption rate (SAR) of the surrounding tissue to determine the limits on transmitter power level for safe operation within the FCC restrictions on implanted electronics. We show the tradeoffs of safe transmit power levels verses bit error rate (BER), distance and data rate (Rb) for line of sight (LOS) and non-line of sight (NLOS) indoor propagation channels. A link budget is created to determine the received power levels for our FCC SAR compliant system as a function of distance, data rate and system bandwidth. Results demonstrate that for a BER of 1e-6 and data rate of 100 Mbps, the biotelemetry system can communicate using FSK modulation for distances up to 3.5 m and 0.7 m assuming worst case LOS and NLOS path loss environments, respectively. The system is analyzed using the maximum bandwidth (7.5 GHz) of the UWB spectrum and various FCC limited transmit power levels.

Power supply of intelligent implants, as for example, an intraocular pressure sensor, cannot be handled with conventional voltage sources due to their limited durability. Energy harvesting on the contrary could be a conceivable solution to this task converting mechanical energy of fast eye movements into electrical energy. In this contribution, we investigate the upper limit on the amount of electrical energy, which can be harvested from occurring eye movements during different visual tasks. This analysis is performed on the basis of video sequences recorded with a high-speed camera system.

Energy-efficient two-stage Compressed Sensing method for implantable neural recordings 植入式神经记录的节能两阶段压缩感知方法
Pub Date : 2013-12-12 DOI: 10.1109/BioCAS.2013.6679661

For in-vivo neuroscience experiments, implantable neural recording devices have been widely used to capture neural activity. With high acquisition rate, these devices require efficient on-chip compression methods to reduce power consumption for the subsequent wireless transmission. Recently, Compressed Sensing (CS) approaches have shown great potentials, but there exists the tradeoff between the complexity of the sensing circuit and its compression performance. To address this challenge, we proposed a two-stage CS method, including an on-chip sensing using random Bernoulli Matrix S and an off-chip sensing using Puffer transformation P. Our approach allows a simple circuit design and improves the reconstruction performance with the off-chip sensing. Moreover, we proposed to use measureed data as the sparsifying dictionary D. It delivers comparable reconstruction performance to the signal dependent dictionary and outperforms the standard basis. It also allows both D and P to be updated incrementally with reduced complexity. Experiments on simulation and real datasets show that the proposed approach can yield an average SNDR gain of more than 2 dB over other CS approaches.
在活体神经科学实验中,植入式神经记录装置已被广泛用于捕捉神经活动。由于采集速率高,这些设备需要高效的片上压缩方法来降低后续无线传输的功耗。近年来,压缩感知(CS)方法显示出巨大的潜力,但在感知电路的复杂性和压缩性能之间存在权衡。为了解决这一挑战,我们提出了一种两阶段的CS方法,包括使用随机伯努利矩阵S的片上传感和使用Puffer变换p的片外传感。我们的方法允许简单的电路设计,并提高了片外传感的重建性能。此外,我们提出使用测量数据作为稀疏字典d,它提供了与信号相关字典相当的重建性能,并且优于标准基。它还允许以较低的复杂性增量地更新D和P。在仿真和真实数据集上的实验表明,与其他CS方法相比,该方法的平均SNDR增益大于2 dB。

A novel two-stage reaction-control scheme with a background-cancelling circuit - for reducing data volume and analysis time of an ion-sensitive-FET (ISFET) - based DNA sequencer-is proposed. The scheme successfully reduces the background noise and renders time-consuming background analysis unnecessary. It also reduces sample-to-data time by 72% (3.6 times faster) and data volume by two orders of magnitude.

Radar systems for detection of human heartbeats have mostly been single-channel systems with limited spatial resolution. In this paper, a radar for ultra-wideband (UWB) imaging of dynamic reflectors inside the human body is presented. To make the radar waves penetrate the human tissue a body-contact antenna is used. The antenna is an array with eight elements, and an antenna switch system connects the radar to the individual elements in sequence to form an image. Successive images are used to build up a time-lapse movie of the beating heart with a frame rate of 25 Hz. Measurements on a human test subject are presented and heartbeat waveforms are extracted at specific locations inside the body. The experiments indicate sufficient resolution for observation of different moving parts of the heart and may provide basis for live diagnosis.

A new power supply circuit significantly increases the utility of Argon Plasma Coagulation by varying patient inclusion in the plasma-forming circuit, and by supporting novel bipolar plasma instruments. This technology spans a large gap in present plasma medicine market offerings, increasing controllability and producing previously-unobtainable tissue effects.
一种新的电源电路通过改变患者在等离子体形成电路中的包含,以及支持新型双极等离子体仪器,显着提高了氩等离子体凝固的效用。这项技术弥补了目前血浆药物市场产品的巨大空白,提高了可控性,并产生了以前无法获得的组织效应。
