There is a need for noninvasive techniques for simultaneous imaging of the stress and vibration mode shapes of nanomechanical systems in the fields of scanning probe microscopy, nanomechanical biological and chemical sensors and the semiconductor industry. Here we show a novel technique that combines a scanning laser, the beam detection method and digital multifrequency excitation…
In the biomedical field, end-point detection bioassays such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) are essential tools because of their simplicity, high-throughput, and suitability for their use at the point-of-care. End-point bioassays are significantly constrained by the need of sample labeling with fluorescent or colorimetric tags for subsequent detection. A promising strategy to overcome these limitations…

SCIENION AG today announced that the Bionanomechanics Lab of the Madrid-based Microelectronics Institute is using Scienion’s sciFLEXARRAYER to produce ultrasensitive nanomechanical biosensors for genetic analysis in collaboration with the company Mecwins SL. Dr. Holger Eickhoff, CEO of SCIENION AG, states: “Nanomechanical biosensors show an ever-improving sensitivity limit for the label-free detection of biomolecules. The…
Bionanomechanics Lab Group of the Institute of Micro and Nanotechnology of the CSIC (IMN-CSIC), in collaboration with Marcos Malumbres (Vall d’Hebron Institute of Oncology (VHIO), has developed an innovative method to suppress the main source of noise in digital holographic microscopy that allows visualization of the metabolic activity of cells with high spatial resolution and…
