Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
The term of optofluidics defines an emergent research field that combines microfluidics and optics. In many lab-on-a-chip applications, these two technologies are used in combining the microfluidics for sample delivery and optics for sensing and controllin ...
The goal of eliminating tuberculosis (TB) by 2050 depends on the development of improved TB diagnostics, drugs and vaccines. Advances in these areas require a deep understanding of the disease and its causative agent, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb). My ...
The isolation of high quality DNA from environmental samples such as soil is essential for use in downstream applications. Two common issues often encountered with the purification of DNA from soil are the ability to fully lyse microbial organisms in the s ...
The aim of this thesis was to explore the topoisomerase-DNA interactions using atomic force microscopy (AFM) in a liquid environment. Firstly, we present a programmable microcontroller-driven injection system for the exchange of an imaging medium while usi ...
Here we present an electrical lysis throughput of 600 microliters per minute at high cell density (108 yeast cells per ml) with 90% efficiency, thus improving the current common throughput of one microliter per minute. We also demonstrate the extraction of ...
An integrated chip for DNA hybridization detection was realized in a standard CMOS process: it hosts 80 biosensors subdivided in 2 channels, as well as D/A and A/D converters for electrical stimulation and readout. A microfluidic system, bonded on the surf ...
Extremely sensitive protein detection is crucial for early diagnosis and monitoring of diseases. Present day’s limit of detection for an antibody-antigen recognition-based immunoassay in serum without having to use special target antigen amplification tech ...
Using Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching, we investigate the Brownian motion of DNA rod-like fragments in two distinct anisotropic phases with a local nematic symmetry. The height of the measurement volume ensures the averaging of the anisotropy of ...
SU-8 photoresist is commonly used in the field of microfabrication as structural material or for molding of microfluidic devices. One major limitation, however, is the difficulty to process partially freestanding SU-8 structures or monolithic closed caviti ...
DNA technologies such as cloning, DNA microarrays, and next generation sequencing have transformed the life sciences. Protein technologies on the other hand have not seen such explosive progress. This is mainly due to the inherent difficulty of working wit ...
