General Defocus Particle Tracking / Generell ur-fokus partikel spårningAnderberg, Joakim January 2023 (has links)
Three-dimensional particle tracking is a valuable tool in microfluidics for obtaining information about a system. General Defocus Particle Tracking (GDPT) is a straightforward method of 3D particle tracking that only requires a single-camera plane, making it applicable to existing equipment in a laboratory. This project's aim was to evaluate the open-source module DefocusTracker which uses GDPT. DefocusTracker was used to track particles that were levitated in a microchip using ultrasonic standing waves. The effects of different calibration methods used and the evaluation of the acoustic energy density over an active part of a piezo on an microchip device were investigated. Different procedures to generate a depth model from the calibration images showed that the choice of step length affects the accuracy of the depth model. A depth model created from the middle part of the field of view provides more accurate results compared to one made from the edge. Levitation experiments demonstrate that higher applied voltages result in a stronger acoustic energy density field over the field of view. The acoustic energy density field and pressure amplitude field show variations across the active piezo on the device, potentially due to a non-uniform thickness of the fluid layer and variations in energy delivery from the piezo. Overall, GDPT proves to be a useful method for evaluating unknown aspects of a microfluidic system under the influence of ultrasonic standing waves. / Tredimensionell partikelspårning är ett värdefullt verktyg inom mikrofluidik för att få ut information om ett system. Generell ur-fokus partikel spårning (GDPT) är en okomplicerad metod för 3D-partikelspårning som endast kräver ett plan med en kamera. Detta gör den tillämpningsbar på befintliga utrustningar i ett laboratorium. Syftet med detta projekt var att utvärdera den öppna modulen DefocusTracker som använder sig av GDPT. DefocusTracker användes för att spåra partiklar som leviterades i ett mikrochip med hjälp av stående ultraljudsvågor. Effekterna av olika kalibreringsmetoder och utvärderingen av den akustiska energitätheten över en aktiv del av en piezo på ett mikrochip undersöktes. Olika metoder för att generera en djup modell från kalibreringsbilderna visade att valet av steglängd påverkar djup modellens noggrannhet. En djup modell som skapats från mitten av synfältet ger mer användbara resultat jämfört med en som skapats från kanten. Levitationsexperiment visar att högre använda spänningar resulterar i ett starkare akustiskt energitäthetsfält över synfältet. Fältet för den akustiska energitätheten och tryckamplituden visar variationer över den aktiva piezon på enheten, vilket kan bero på en ojämn tjocklek på vätskelagret och variationer i energitillförseln från piezon. Allmänt visar sig GDPT vara en användbar metod för att utvärdera okända aspekter av ett mikrofluidiskt system under påverkan av stående ultraljudsvågor.

Measuring bacterial metabolism and antibioticsusceptibility : using silicon nanowire field-effect transistor.Alhoush, George January 2024 (has links)
Antimicrobial resistance is considered by many prominent researcher and scientist as a profound global health crisis that us humans must face in the next decade. It is threatening the effectiveness of these once-reliable weapons against bacterial infections and leaving us susceptible to pathogenic agents. The indiscriminate overprescription of antibiotic in healthcare and animal husbandry, has led to an increased emergence of “super bugs”— a resistant strain of bacteria that were once susceptible to antibiotic—. The escalating creation of those resistant bacteria has been coupled with a proliferation of research papers that seek to explain the working mechanism of antibiotics and their efficacy on the bacterial pathogens, however these efforts often fall short of explaining the impact that antibiotics has on the bacterial metabolism. This project utilizes an established technology, specifically silicone nano-wire ion-selective field-effect transistor in an innovative approach to discern alteration in the metabolic pathways induced by various antibiotics. The methodology involves measuring extracellular acidity of the tested culture and converting it to an electrical signal to extract valuable information about the metabolic process of the bacteria, and how is altered in the presence of antibiotics. Empirical observations pertaining bacteriostatic antibiotics suggests comprehensive suppression of metabolic pathways, encompassing the efflux transition from acetyl-CoA to acetate, resulting an elevated pH level in cultures treated with bacteriostatic agents relative to their wild-type counterparts. Our experimental data also indicates a shift in bacterial metabolic and physiological responses to bactericidal antibiotic-induced stress which include an increased respiration rate, and a heightened activity of the TCA cycle in the test group with bactericidal antibiotics, causing acetate uptake from the medium and decelerating the acidification of the treated culture compared to the wild-type. The results clearly demonstrate a successful utilization of the chip to further study the effects that antibiotics have on bacteria and the interplay between bacterial metabolism and antibiotic efficacy.

Management of urban common brushtail possums (Trichosurus vulpecula)Eymann, Jutta January 2007 (has links)
Thesis by publication -- 8 co-authored articles. / Thesis (PhD)--Macquarie University, Division of Environmental and Life Sciences, Department of Biological Sciences. / Includes bibliographical references. / Preface -- Management issues of urban common brushtail possums (Trichosurus vulpecula): a loved or hated neighbour -- Effects of deslorelin implants on reproduction in the common brushtail possum (Trichosurus vulpecula) -- Brushtail possums (Trichosurus vulpecula) in metropolotan Sydney: population biology and response to contraceptive implants -- Strategic survey for Toxoplasma gondii and Neospora caninum in the common brushtail possum (Trichosurus vulpecula) from urban Sydney, Australia -- Leptospirosis serology in the common brushtail possum (Trichosurus vulpecula) from urban Sydney, Australia -- Conclusions. / The common brushtail possum (Trichosurus vulpecula) is indeed a common inhabitant of many Australian citites, and one of the few marsupials that has adapted well to the urban environment. Their close proximity to people provides a great opportunity to experience native wildlife in the backyard, however, their utilization of house roofs, bold behaviour and appetite for garden plants often leads to conflict with householders. Population numbers are sufficiently high to require ongoing management to minimise negative impacts for humans and brushtail possums alike in a socially acceptable manner. The aim of this thesis was to identify current management issues and address the need for improved and novel management strategies. The potential of slow-release implants, containing the GnRH agonist deslorelin, as a contraceptive agent for brushtail possums was tested on a captive population. Males appeared resistant to treatment, but deslorelin was found to inhibit reproduction in female brushtail possums for at least one breeding season, making it a promising tool to control fertility in some wild populations. A further aim was to trial deslorelin implants on a wild urban population, to collect more information about the urban biology of this species and to point out issues which have previously not been addressed. Close proximity and interaction of urban brushtail possums with humans and their domestic animals can increase the risk of disease exposure and transmission and influence the health of wild populations. Serosurveys showed that animals were readily exposed to Leptospira spp. and Toxoplasma gondii. This thesis also provides the first data on brushtail possum dispersal in urban areas, knowledge which is highly relevant to the development of management strategies such as fertility control. The findings from this research broaden our knowledge about urban brushtail possums and should assist wildlife authorities in developing alternative or improved management procedures. / Mode of access: World Wide Web. / xxv, 287 p. ill., maps

The Master‘s thesis deals with a creating of display writers on multiple-function steering wheel Formule Student. It is mainly about dates transfered through RS232 or CAN bus from control unit of the Formule to microcontroller. First of all it is necessary to find out, which informations and a which way of displaying them are more useful and readable for drivers. This leads to another point - right choice of display writers, which will be used on the steering wheel. Creation of the design and construction of display device follows.
