BoNTs delivered locally in humans at low doses are widely used pharmaceuticals. Reliable and quantitative detection of BoNTs is of paramount importance for the clinical diagnosis of botulism, basic research, drug development, potency determination, and detection in clinical, environmental, and food samples. Ideally, a definitive assay for BoNT should reflect the activity of each of the four steps in nerve intoxication. The in vivo mouse bioassay (MBA) is the 'gold standard' for the detection of BoNTs. The MBA is sensitive, robust, semi-quantitative, and reliable within its sensitivity limits. Potential drawbacks with the MBA include assay-to-assay potency variations, especially between laboratories, and false positives or negatives. These limitations can be largely avoided by careful planning and performance. Another detection method that has gained importance in recent years for research and potency determination of pharmaceutical BoNTs is cell-based assays, as these assays can be highly sensitive, quantitative, human-specific, and detect fully functional holotoxins at physiologically relevant concentrations. A myriad of other in vitro BoNT detection methods exist. This review focuses on critical factors and assay limitations of the mouse bioassay and cell-based assays for BoNT detection.

The most obvious is dispersing of materials in liquids in order to break particle agglomerates. Known types of systems which are used to this purpose, composed of a liquid tank and a high power ultrasonic generator. In this paper, an ultrasonic dispersion system has been proposed and designed with new method of particle dispersing strategy. The main advantage of the proposed is decreasing dispersion time and increasing the particles size uniformity. It assumed that the mix of particles and liquid medium is passing through a cubical pipe. Suitable number of transducers embedded on one side of the pipe with optimum distance from each other, so that the ultrasonic intensity can be focused on some cavitations zones to stimulate dispersion function gradually. Evaluating of the optimum placement of transducers is calculated and simulated using FEMLAB package (COMSOL multi-physics 3.4). The ultras...

Since they act as input gates, their nonlinearities directly degrade the quality of the input signals. The scaling-down trend of CMOS technology and increasing demands for high-speed and power-efficient circuits pose design challenge in high-speed sampling switches for low-voltage applications. To address this issue, an optimized CMOS switch is proposed in this paper consisting of a bootstrappedNMOSswitch and a boosted PMOSswitch as a transmission gate.By utilizing this technique, the nonlinearity resulting from the threshold voltage variation (body effect) of NMOS switch is mitigated, considerably. To evaluate the proposed switch, it is designed in 0.18 μm CMOS process technology. According to the obtained simulation results, this switch can achieve total harmonic distortion of−78.81 and−62.99dB in 100 MS/s at Vdd = 1 Volt and 50 MS/s at Vdd = 0.8 V, respectively.

Research paper thumbnail of Frequency Adjustment in Ultrasonic Tomography System with a Metal Pipe Conveyor

The application of ultrasonic tomography systems for producing cross-sectional images of objects ... more The application of ultrasonic tomography systems for producing cross-sectional images of objects by a noninvasive method plays a dominant role in industry, especially in the oil industry. Since finding the appropriate ultrasonic sensor is the main step in designing an ultrasonic tomography system, determination of the properties of the ultrasonic sensor is very important. In this paper, the manner of ultrasonic wave propagation in various regions and its dependence on frequency are investigated. A finite element software (COMSOL Multiphysics 3.5) is used for visualizing the practical module in a virtual environment to describe the physical interaction inside a metal pipe. Since the transmission mode of an ultrasonic wave is significant in accordance with the data being carried, a frequency should be chosen in which the straight path wave is improved and other propagation modes such as a surface wave on the wall of a metal pipe are attenuated. A frequency of 40 kHz is extracted as the resonance frequency of a desired ultrasonic sensor owing to the simulation results. This claim is proved by the practical testing that is presented in this paper.

Microelectronics Journal, 2014

ABSTRACT Decreasing the size of DAC capacitors is a solution to achieve high-speed and low-power ... more ABSTRACT Decreasing the size of DAC capacitors is a solution to achieve high-speed and low-power successive-approximation register analog-to-digital converters (SAR ADCs). But decreasing the size of capacitors directly effects the linearity performance of converter. In this paper, the effect of capacitor mismatch on linearity performance of charge redistribution SAR ADCs is studied. According to the achieved results from this investigation, a new tri-level switching algorithm is proposed to reduce the matching requirement for capacitors in SAR ADCs. The integral non-linearity (INL) and the differential non-linearity (DNL) of the proposed scheme are reduced by factor of two over the conventional SAR ADC which is the lowest compared to the previous schemes. In addition, the switching energy of the proposed scheme is reduced by 98.02% as compared with the conventional architecture which is the most energy-efficient algorithms in comparison with the previous algorithms, too. To evaluate the proposed method an 8-bit 50 MS/s SAR ADC is designed in 0.18 um CMOS process technology. According to the obtained simulation results, the designed ADC digitizes a 25-MHz input with 48.16 dB SNDR while consuming about 589 μW from a 1.2-V supply.

The structure which is a combination of SAR-ADC and pipelined ADC benefits from each of their advantages. A new synchronization method is proposed to improve the pipelined SAR-ADC's speed. The proposed method reduces the total conversion without limiting the ADC performance. To evaluate the proposed method a 10-bit 100 MS/s is designed in 0.5 μm CMOS process technology. According to the obtained simulation results, the designed ADC digitizes a 9-MHz input with 54.19 dB SNDR while consuming 57.3 mw from a 5-V supply.
