Oxygen plasma induced hydrophilicity of Parylene-C thin films
, Applied Surface Science, Vol: 261, Pages: 43-51, ISSN: 1873-5584This paper investigates the surface modification of Parylene-C thin films under various oxygen plasma treatment conditions, such as power intensity (50:400 W) and exposure time (1:20 min). The extent of hydrophilicity was investigated through contact angle measurements, and correlations between treatment parameters, film thickness, restoration of hydrophobicity and etching rates were experimentally established. We also demonstrate the selective modification of Parylene-C films, facilitating distinct hydrophilic and hydrophobic areas with μm-resolution that can be exploited in self-alignment applications.

Biomimetic model of the outer plexiform layer by incorporating memristive devices.
, Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys, Vol: 85In this paper we present a biorealistic model for the first part of the early vision of processing by incorporating memristive nanodevices. The architecture of the proposed network is based on the organization and functioning of the outer plexiform layer (OPL) in the vertebrate retina. We demonstrate that memristive devices are indeed a valuable building block for neuromorphic architectures, as their highly nonlinear and adaptive response could be exploited for establishing ultradense networks with dynamics similar to that of their biological counterparts. We particularly show that hexagonal memristive grids can be employed for faithfully emulating the smoothing effect occurring in the OPL to enhance the dynamic range of the system. In addition, we employ a memristor-based thresholding scheme for detecting the edges of grayscale images, while the proposed system is also evaluated for its adaptation and fault tolerance capacity against different light or noise conditions as well as its distinct device yields.

A simple robust method for estimating the glucose rate of appearance from mixed meals.
, J Diabetes Sci Technol, Vol: 6, Pages: 153-162BACKGROUND: Estimating the rate of glucose appearance (R(a)) after ingestion of a mixed meal may be highly valuable in diabetes management. The gold standard technique for estimating R(a) is the use of a multitracer oral glucose protocol. However, this technique is complex and is usually not convenient for large studies. Alternatively, a simpler approach based on the glucose-insulin minimal model is available. The main drawback of this last approach is that it also requires a gastrointestinal model, something that may lead to identifiability problems. METHODS: In this article, we present an alternative, easy-to-use method based on the glucose-insulin minimal model for estimation of R(a). This new technique avoids complex experimental protocols by only requiring data from a standard meal tolerance test. Unlike other model-based approaches, this new approach does not require a gastrointestinal model, which leads to a much simpler solution. Furthermore, this novel technique requires the identification of only one parameter of the minimal model because the rest of the model parameters are considered to have small variability. In order to account for such variability as well as to account for errors associated to measurements, interval analysis has been employed. RESULTS: The current technique has been validated using data from a United States Food and Drug Administration-accepted type 1 diabetes simulator [root mean square error (RMSE) = 0.77] and successfully tested with two clinical data sets from the literature (RMSE = 0.69). CONCLUSIONS: The presented technique for the estimation of R(a) showed excellent results when tested with simulated and actual clinical data. The simplicity of this new technique makes it suitable for large clinical research studies for the evaluation of the role of R(a) in patients with impairments in glucose metabolism. In addition, this technique is being used to build a model library of mixed meals that could be incorporated into diabetic su
