According to the refined model, the longitudinal kinetic energy （ExL） and the effective mass （m^＊L） of the electron8 in the electrode on the left of the barrier distinguish from that on the right. It is found that as ExL is greater than the shorter side of the resultant trapezoidal barrier potential, there will be a coexistence of the tunneling and propagating in the barrier. The results demonstrate that the damped oscillating electron waves localized in the propagating barrier subregion lead to the oscillation and enhancement in the transmission coefficient DT and dwell time TD. For the barrier height φ1=2.6 eV and φ2 = 1.4 eV, the width d=22 A and ExL = 1.0 eV, DT and TD have a maximum of 0.054 and 0.58x10^-15 s at V = 2.04 V and 2.18 V, respectively. This suggests that a real tunneling may be a hybrid.展开更多

The receptor protein, the carboxy-terminal domain of β-lactam sensor-transducer mutant from Bacillus.licheniformis, served as the recognition element. Colloidal gold(CG)-labelled receptor antibody-receptor ternary complex was applied as a signal transducer probe. The presence ofβ-lactams was identified through a color change in the test zone, where the reaction between the complex of CG/antireceptor antibody/receptor and β-lactam antigen on the test line could be inhibited by β-lactam residues in the sample,thus leading to a reduction in color signal. Based on the indirect labeling of the receptor with an antibody as a linker, the ability to detect 33 β-lactams was below or near the corresponding maximum residue limit. The proposed lateral flow immunoassay biosensor appears to be an excellent field-based screening tool for the qualitative screening of β-lactams in milk.展开更多
