The present invention discloses a rapid evaluation method for quality of lignin-pyrolyzed bio-oil and an application thereof, and particularly relates to a rapid evaluation method for quality of lignin-pyrolyzed bio-oil based on radical detection and an application thereof. The method can be used to evaluate the quality of lignin-pyrolyzed bio-oil by detecting the spin concentration of radicals in lignin char obtained by lignin pyrolysis, thus avoiding the complex processes involved in the evaluation for the quality of conventional pyrolyzed bio-oils such as, extraction, separation and detection and reducing the detection costs substantially. The detection method of the present invention is simple and easy to operate, thus achieving the rapid evaluation for the quality of lignin-pyrolyzed bio-oil. Moreover, the detection method of the present invention is non-contact detection without destructive samples, which is applicable to the rapid detection on the quality of lignin-pyrolyzed bio-oil in the field of industry and scientific research. The present invention further broadens the application fields of radical detection and contributes to the development of radical detection technology in the field of pyrolysis, and provides a reliable method for the detection of lignin-pyrolyzed bio-oil, which has good application prospect.

Apparatus and methods for the detection of proteins in biological fluids such as urine using a label-free assay is described. Specific proteins are detected by their binding to highly specific capture reagents such as SOMAmers that are attached to the surface of a substrate. Changes to these capture reagents and their local environment upon protein binding modify the behavior of color centers (e.g., fluorescence, ionization state, spin state, etc.) embedded in the substrate beneath the bound capture reagents. These changes can be read out, for example, optically or electrically, for an individual color center or as an average response of many color centers.

In a magnetic field source detecting apparatus, a magnetic sensor unit detects an intensity and a direction of a measurement target magnetic field on or over a surface of a test target object; and a position estimating unit estimates a position in a depth direction of a magnetic field source that exists at an unspecified position inside a test target object on the basis of the intensities and the directions of the measurement target magnetic field detected by the magnetic sensor at at least two 2-dimensional positions of the surface.

A sensing probe may be formed of a diamond material comprising one or more spin defects that are configured to emit fluorescent light and are located no more than 50 nm from a sensing surface of the sensing probe. The sensing probe may include an optical outcoupling structure formed by the diamond material and configured to optically guide the fluorescent light toward an output end of the optical outcoupling structure. An optical detector may detect the fluorescent light that is emitted from the spin defects and that exits through the output end of the optical outcoupling structure after being optically guided therethrough. A mounting system may hold the sensing probe and control a distance between the sensing surface of the sensing probe and a surface of a sample while permitting relative motion between the sensing surface and the sample surface.

The invention is related to a sample holder for measurements of optically detected magnetic resonance, including a bottom plate, a top plate and a middle plate, wherein all the plates are made of a dielectric material. The top plate is provided with at least one top opening, enabling continuous optical access to the studied sample during measurements. The sample is placed in the central opening provided in the middle plate. The non-magnetic conductive strips provided on the surfaces of the bottom plate, the middle plate and the top plate ensure formation of an electrical circuit, which allows coupling of the studied sample with the generated microwave radiation to be achieved once the microwave sources is switched on. The invention also includes a sample holder for measurements of optically detected magnetic resonance, enabling formation of at least one loop of the electrical circuit.

Spin resonance spectroscopy and/or imaging is achieved using a system that combines longitudinal (e.g., along the z-axis) detection with a modulated fictitious field generated by a transverse plane (e.g., xy-plane) RF field. Based on z-axis detection of magnetization polarized by this fictitious field as it is modulated (e.g., modulated on and off, or otherwise), spin resonance signals (e.g., EPR, NMR) are measurable with high isolation simultaneous transmit and receive capability. Additionally or alternatively, spin relaxation times can be measured using the described systems.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for closed-loop control of a system using one or more electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) sensors located on-site. With such EPR sensors, a change can be applied to the system, the EPR sensors can measure the effect(s) of the change, and then adjustments can be made in real-time. This feedback process may be repeated continuously to control the system.
