Hi everyone, this is going to be a brief update on something that I’ve been working on the side. I’ll be showing pore detection using color subtraction and Canny edge detection. All code was written in Mathematica. First up, color subtraction: Depending on image brightness, this method can fairly accurately pick up inner pores. Of…
Here are images of actin filaments on Formvar coated 200 mesh nickel grid. Actin filaments were polymerized exactly as before. TEM sample preparation procedure is: 1. add actin solution on Formvar grid and wait 90 sec 2. remove liquid, add same volume of 2% UA and wait 90 sec 3. remove liquid and load on…

With our virus sensor paper now published, my journey with virus diagnostics, at least for now, comes to an end. Keeping with the theme of modifying silicon surfaces for interaction with pathogens, I am now switching gears to developing models for bacterial infection. This is currently taking shape in an effort to coat our silicon…
This is re-do of a post I made before the new year regarding the predictions of the ‘Tong equation’ for wafer 310 (I deleted the earlier post because I came to the wrong conclusion). I wrote MATLAB files to calculate the predictions of the Tong equation from porosity, pore diameter, pressure and membrane thickness. Also,…
