“…1881/2006). Although the LOD (3 ng/mL) needs to be improved in order to fit with the European regulation (maximum residue level (MRL) is 50 ng/L in milk) the study proves the great potential of an aMZI device as a miniaturised analytical tool for label-free detection of aflatoxin in milk [13]. Pagkali et al has developed a MZI immunosensor for the detection of Ochratoxin A, one of the most-abundant food-contaminating mycotoxins, with a LOD of 0.25 ng/mL.…”

“…Industrial interest in the reaction fluctuated due to the changes in availability and price of oil. As the demands for environmentally friendly fuels are increasing, interest in FT synthesis is growing as well, and the technology gains attention to produce liquid fuels from natural gas, coal and biomass (Fechete and Vedrine, 2017;Krylova, 2014;Samavati, 2018). Bio-derived synthetic hydrocarbons from synthesis gas offers a cleaner and more sustainable solution compared to fossil alternatives, with significantly reduced greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) and net climate impact.…”

Thermal gasification is a very relevant technological platform to assess in relation to production of carbonnegative bioenergy from plant materials as it offers high feed and product flexibility combined with highenergy efficiency. Many different biomass feedstock and organic secondary resources can be converted into a wide variety of products such as heat, electricity, chemicals, transport fuels and high-value ash and char products. The platform is undergoing fast development, and industry and academia work together to optimize the process performance, increase fuel and product flexibility as well as combine different technologies to increase the efficiency, economic viability and product yield and value. This chapter provides insight on the versatility and potential benefits of biomass gasification and the related biobased products. General key issues of gasification plant designs are discussed, and a series of new concepts and solutions within process integration schemes, polygeneration strategies and biochar uses are described.

“…In all the above reports, the MZIs were symmetric, i.e., the sensing and the reference arms had equal length; nonetheless, asymmetric MZIs with small path differences between the two arms, have been also fabricated. Such an MZI has been employed for the immunochemical detection of aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) in milk samples [89]. The sensor LOD for AFM1 was 3 mg/L, which is orders of magnitude higher than the maximum allowable limit in EU (0.05 mg/mL), thus requiring sample pre-concentration.…”

The article reviews the current status of label-free integrated optical sensors focusing on the evolution over the years of their analytical performance. At first a short introduction to the evanescent wave optics is provided followed by detailed description of the main categories of label-free optical sensors including sensors based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR), grating coupler, photonic crystals, ring resonators and interferometric transducers. After a short reference to SPR techniques, including localized SPR, integrated optical sensors i.e., grating-couplers, interferometers, photonic crystals, microring resonators are reviewed. For each type of sensor, the detection principle is first provided followed by description of the different transducer configurations so far developed and their performance as biosensors. Finally, a short discussion about the current limitations and future perspectives of integrated label-free biosensors optical sensors is provided
