Binary coded identification of industrial chemical vapors with an optofluidic nose
(OSA - The Optical Society, 2016)An artificial nose system for the recognition and classification of gas-phase analytes and its application in identifying common industrial gases is reported. The sensing mechanism of the device comprises the measurement ... -
Bio-insprired optoelectronic digital nose for breath analysis
(2011)A novel electronic nose device is presented that can be used in disease diagnostics by exhaled breath analysis. Exhaled breath contains more than a thousand organic compounds that can be analysed to insect various diseases ... -
Electrospinning of polymer-free cyclodextrin/geraniol-inclusion complex nanofibers: enhanced shelf-life of geraniol with antibacterial and antioxidant properties
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016)Free-standing nanofibrous webs of cyclodextrin/geraniol-inclusion complex (CD/geraniol-IC-NF) showing antibacterial, antioxidant activity and slow release of geraniol were developed as flavour/fragrance releasing materials ... -
Molecular entrapment of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by electrospun cyclodextrin nanofibers
(Elsevier, 2016-02)In this paper, we reported the molecular entrapment performance of hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HPβCD) and hydroxypropyl-gamma-cyclodextrin (HPγCD) electrospun nanofibers (NF) for two common volatile organic compounds ... -
Photonic bandgap infrared spectrometer
(Optical Society of America, 2010)We propose and demonstrate an infrared (IR) absorption spectrometer, made with a spatially variable photonic bandgap (PBG) structure, a blackbody source, and a simple IR detector, to identify the IR molecular fingerprints ... -
Selective and efficient removal of volatile organic compounds by channel-type gamma-cyclodextrin assembly through inclusion complexation
(American Chemical Society, 2017)Cyclodextrins (CD), produced from enzymatic degradation of starch, are a form of biorenewable cyclic oligosaccharide which has an outstanding capability to form inclusion complexes with a variety of molecules including ... -
VOC gas leak detection using pyro-electric infrared sensors
(IEEE, 2010)In this paper, we propose a novel method for detecting and monitoring Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) gas leaks by using a Pyro-electric (or Passive) Infrared (PIR) sensor whose spectral range intersects with the absorption ... -
Volatile organic compound plume detection using wavelet analysis of video
(IEEE, 2008-10)A video based method to detect volatile organic compounds (VOC) leaking out of process equipments used in petrochemical refineries is developed. Leaking VOC plume from a damaged component causes edges present in image ...
