Abstract

Apheresis is an essential step in clinical diagnostic. Searching for a safe and fast way was necessary to avoid wasting time and obtain the desired results efficiently. This research includes two stages: First, a microfluidic biochip with the properties of fast processing response, automation capability, and low-cost was designed having a tiny mesh-type channel that filters pure plasma from the blood components and a straight channel to deliver the pure plasma to a tank. Second, an automated system was designed to detect blood calcium levels using a microcontroller and a colors-detection sensor TCS3200-DB. The device is designed to take a 0.15 to 2.15 mg/dL, 10-160 µm blood sample, which is considered small compared to the samples taken for the blood apheresis process used in laboratories where a substantial quantity of pure plasma is obtained naturally. Pure plasma is mixed with calcium detectors R1 and R2 to get a violet-colored solution with a wavelength between 390 nm to 440 nm. The results of the proposed device were compared with the traditional methods used spectroscopy method using concentrations of 10 different blood samples, and the results proved that there is a slight error between the two processes.

Abstract

In this article, we analyzed the structure of human nails to develop a modern biometric authentication system based on the nail bed and finger lunula. The results of the studies on the collected images proved that each fingernail has distinctive characteristics in terms of the length and width of the nail and the lunula, even identical twins. We focused on the fingernail of the right thumb because of its large size and the accuracy and clarity of the nail. The mediation of the indicative points on the nail bed and on the lunula was used to form the pentagonal structure and use it as a region of interest. Then an ensemble independent component analysis, principal component analysis, haar wavelet, and scale invariant feature transformation, were used. Later we classified these algorithms using support vector machine and Naive Bayes techniques, the performance of each algorithm was analyzed by feature extraction with two classifiers. This study was conducted on 100 participants and showed that this new method could be used as a biometric identification system for humans. There was no similarity in results for all verified samples.
