DesignBrief Introduction of Bio-diode
The diode, one of the most significant parts in the electric integrate circuit and electronic equipment, functions as allowing the current get through when the diode is positive-biased, and cut off while it is negative-biased. When the negative voltage increases to a threshold, the diode tends to be negatively broken down. In this project, the molecular signal AHL is considered as the current of electric circuit.Three types of cells: generator cells、Amplifier cells and Block cells are immobilized into small beads with a diameter of 0.5 millimeter, then different beads are settled into particular parts of our specially designed equipment sequentially and respectively.
On the contrary, if the positions of amplifier cells and block cells in the equipment are reversed, the AHL produced by generator cell would be degraded by block cells at the very beginning resulting in no amplification of the signal. Thus, hardly AHL could be detected in the outflow culture, a condition called ‘negative-biased block’.
