Novel highly sensitive protein sensors based on tapered optical fibres modified with Au-based nanocoatings (2016)
Journal Article
Urrutia, A., Bojan, K., Marques, L., Mullaney, K., Goicoechea, J., James, S., …Tatam, R. (in press). Novel highly sensitive protein sensors based on tapered optical fibres modified with Au-based nanocoatings. Journal of Sensors, 2016, https://doi.org/10.1155/2016/8129387

Novel protein sensors based on tapered optical fibres modified with Au coatings deposited using two different procedures are proposed. Au-based coatings are deposited onto a nonadiabatic tapered optical fibre using (i) a novel facile method composed...

Highly sensitive contact pressure measurements using FBG patch in endotracheal tube cuff (2016)
Journal Article
Correia, R., Blackman, O. R., Hernandez, F. U., Korposh, S., Morgan, S. P., Hayes-Gill, B. R., …Norris, A. (2016). Highly sensitive contact pressure measurements using FBG patch in endotracheal tube cuff. Proceedings of SPIE, 9916, Article 99161F. https://doi.org/10.1117/12.2236859

A method for measuring the contact pressure between an endotracheal tube cuff and the trachea was designed and developed by using a fibre Bragg grating (FBG) based optical fibre sensor. The FBG sensor is encased in an epoxy based UV-cured cuboid patc... Read More about Highly sensitive contact pressure measurements using FBG patch in endotracheal tube cuff.
