FUNCTIONAL BIOFILM DEVELOPMENTS
New building syndrome has been recent indoor health problem due to endocrine disruptors, formaldehyde, VOC compounds including BTX. To reduce these pollutants , biodegradable PLA film doped with Fe2O3 as well as sensitizer has been developed with fuse bio-nano technologies.
INTERFEROMETRIC BIOSENSOR
Tumor cell releases ultra-low level biomarkers in a blood stream. Conventional radioimmunoassay technology used in a hospital requires tedious and expensive procedure with a license in radioisotope treatment. In our biochip composed of functionalized AAO (Anodized Aluminum Oxide), 1˜4 ng/mL PSA(prostate cancer) can be easily and promptly determined with the computer analysis of variation of light refraction, called as blue shift of fringe pattern in an interferometry.
