Negative magneto-resistance of electron gas in a quantum well with parabolic potential
We have studied the electrical conductivity of the electron gas in parallel
electric and magnetic fields directed along the plane of a parabolic quantum
well (across the profile of the potential). We found a general expression for
the electrical conductivity applicable for any magnitudes of the magnetic field
and the degree of degeneration of the electron gas. A new mechanism of
generation of the negative magnetoresistance has been revealed. It has been
shown that in a parabolic quantum well with a non-degenerated electron gas the
negative magnetoresistance results from spin splitting of the levels of the
size quantization.Comment: 15 pages, 3 figure
A Novel Conductometric Urea Biosensor with Improved Analytical Characteristic Based on Recombinant Urease Adsorbed on Nanoparticle of Silicalite
Development of a conductometric biosensor for the urea detection has been reported. It was created using a non-typical method of the recombinant urease immobilization via adsorption on nanoporous particles of silicalite. It should be noted that this biosensor has a number of advantages, such as simple and fast performance, the absence of toxic compounds during biosensor preparation, and high reproducibility (RSD = 5.1 %). The linear range of urea determination by using the biosensor was 0.05–15 mM, and a lower limit of urea detection was 20 μM. The bioselective element was found to be stable for 19 days. The characteristics of recombinant urease-based biomembranes, such as dependence of responses on the protein and ion concentrations, were investigated. It is shown that the developed biosensor can be successfully used for the urea analysis during renal dialysis
