Researchers develop a microfluidic chip to help detect prostate cancer
Researchers of Sechenov University together with their colleagues from Australia used the microfluidics technology to develop a device able to isolate cancer cells from urine of patients with prostate cancer. The study showed high sensitivity and specificity of the new method in diagnosing prostate cancer. The results obtained were published in ...News Medical: 2020-03-10

New Gyroscope Borrows the Best from MEMS and Optical Devices
There are two kinds of gyroscopes in widespread use for navigation and control: optical ones, which are extremely sensitive but also expensive, and microelectromechanical (MEMS) ones, which are inexpensive and easy to manufacture but aren’t as accurate. For years, engineers have wondered if they could “borrow” a bit of technology from ...Machine Design: 2020-03-09

MEMS technology for fabricating plasmonic near-infrared spectrometers
Now, Oshita Masaaki and Kan Tetsuo at the University of Electro-Communications and collaborators have developed a gold diffraction-grating-type plasmonic photodetector on a MEMS—Micro Electro Mechanical Systems—deformable cantilever. The device was fabricated using a bulk-micromachining technology using n-type silicon. A gold diffraction ...Phys.org: 2020-03-11
