High-Sensitivity Biosensor Based on Glass Resonance PhC Cavities for Detection of Blood Component and Glucose Concentration in Human Urine

Abstract

In this work, a novel structure of an all-optical biosensor based on glass resonance cavities with high detection accuracy and sensitivity in two-dimensional photon crystal is designed and simulated. The free spectral range in which the structure performs well is about FSR = 630 nm. This sensor measures the concentration of glucose in human urine. Analyses to determine the glucose concentration in urine for a normal range (0~15 mg/dL) and urine despite glucose concentrations of 0.625, 1.25, 2.5, 5 and 10 g/dL in the wavelength range 1.326404~1.326426 μm have been conducted. The detection range is RIU = 0.2 × 10−7. The average bandwidth of the output resonance wavelengths is 0.34 nm in the lowest case. In the worst case, the percentage of optical signal power transmission is 77% with an amplitude of 1.303241 and, in the best case, 100% with an amplitude of 1.326404. The overall dimensions of the biosensor are 102.6 µm2 and the sensitivity is equal to S = 1360.02 nm/RIU and the important parameter of the Figure of Merit (FOM) for the proposed biosensor structure is equal to FOM = 1320.23 RIU−1.

“…In addition, melatonin has a positive impact on the oxidative stress parameters, leading to a notable increase in serum SOD activity and total serum antioxidant capacity and may control the atherogenic index to influence cholesterol metabolism and control antioxidant activity with GSH and SOD [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30]. Antioxidants are any chemical (molecule, compound, or enzyme) that has a substantial antioxidant effect.…”

“…The genetic diversity of H. pylori strains could explain the discrepancies in data about the relationship between H. pylori and diabetes. Significant geographic genetic diversity in particular virulence genes (cytotoxin-associated gene product (CagA), the vacuolating toxin (VacA), and the adhesion protein (BabA2) has been discovered, which contributes to the varying risk of H. Pylori infection's mixed clinical results [25,[29][30][31][32][33][34][35].…”

“…The cancer cells have classification and subclassifications based on large cell keratinizing, large cell non-keratinizing, and small cell nonkeratinizing categories regarded as well, moderately and poorly differentiated cancers, respectively [25]. However, conflicting reports suggest a poor prognosis of keratinizing variants in comparison compared to non-keratinizing variants of squamous cells.…”
