The present invention relates to electronic devices for the high sensitivity and selectivity detection and identification of volatile compounds in a gaseous medium, as well as of dissolved compounds in aqueous solutions. The claimed
integrated circuit is intended for detecting and identifying analytes in a multicomponent medium and comprises at least one first
microfluidic channel integrated in at least part of the
integrated circuit surface, at least one
ion-selective
transistor with a sensitive surface and a circuit for
processing the
transistor signals. Furthermore, the first
microfluidic channel has an inner surface and an outer surface. At least part of the first
microfluidic channel outer surface is made in the form of a porous hydrophobic membrane. Moreover, the sensitive surface of the
ion-selective
transistor is located in the first microfluidic channel under the porous hydrophobic membrane, and at least one sensitive surface pad of the said transistor is functionalized with at least one type of biological
receptor for binding the
analyte of interest. The present invention also relates to a device for detecting and identifying analytes in a multicomponent environment, comprising a substrate, the above-described
integrated circuit located on top of the said substrate and an encapsulating layer on top of the integrated circuit. That said, at least one medium supply channel and at least the second microfluidic channel are located in the encapsulating layer in such a way that the second microfluidic channel is connected to the first microfluidic channel and the medium supply channel is located in the porous hydrophobic
membrane region. The technical result achieved by the proposed invention implementation is to reduce the lower
detection threshold of a «bioelectronic
nose» or «bioelectronic tongue» type device, to increase its selectivity in the target compounds identification, to increase the
system response rate and to reduce the analysis time in general.
