Q:

Which of the following is a characteristic of piezoelectric biosensors?

A) Detects the change in light adsorption B) Detects the photon out for luminescent
C) Detects the movement of electrons between electrodes D) Detects the angle at which electrons are emitted
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Detects the angle at which electrons are emitted

Explanation: Piezo-electric devices uses gold to detect the specific angles of the emitted electron waves. When the substance is emitted to the laser light it will emit electron waves. These waves vibrate under the influence of an electric field.

Q:

Which of the following is a characteristic of electrochemical biosensors?

A) Detects the change in light adsorption B) Detects the photon out for luminescent
C) Detects the movement of electrons between electrodes D) Detects the angle at which electrons are emitted
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Detects the movement of electrons between electrodes

Explanation: For a given applied current, electrochemical biosensors study the movement of the electrons in redox reactions detected when a potential is applied between two electrodes. Thus, these biosensors can detect the change of the electron flow due to any reaction,

Q:

In a pregnancy kit, which molecule does the kit actually test for?

A) Baby’s urine test B) Blood test
C) HCG test D) Amniotic fluid test
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) HCG test

Explanation: HCG or human chorionic gonadotropin is a hormone which is released during pregnancy. It is the only hormone which is detectable only in pregnant women. Even the presence of a very minute amount of HCG will give a positive result for the pregnancy.
