Binding of targets with aptamers are reversible in case of thrombin, we were able to fabricate recyclable thrombin sensors with aptamerfunctionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes. Highly specific interactions observed with E.Coli and E.Coli aptamer, which shows the possibility of electronic detection platforms for the detection of microorganisms. For samples with very low density and random distribution, preconcentration or active attraction of targets are necessary to improve the sensitivity and detection time.

The story of Wales. The history of Wales is primarily a story of struggle. It is a tribute to the people of Wales' determination to survive against overwhelming odds -- a struggle reflected not only in its castle-dominated landscape and...
Insect Succession. Necrophages- species that feed on dead tissue arrive first. Includes blow flies, flesh flies, and hide beetles. Omnivores - species such as ants, wasps, and some beetles that feed on both the corpse and associated maggots.
