Advancements in the miniaturization of metal oxide (MOX) gas sensors are enabling a wide range of new applications. One promising application is the in-vivo measurement of gaseous biomarkers, which is discussed in more detail in this presentation. These gaseous biomarkers can provide valuable diagnostic information, as they are directly linked to microbial metabolic activity within the human gastrointestinal tract and can reflect physiological and pathological conditions.

Integrating MOX sensors into state-of-the-art capsule endoscopy systems poses several challenges for sensor packaging, including biocompatibility, protection against liquids while still providing sufficient gas diffusion in harsh chemical environments inside the gastrointestinal tract. Addressing these challenges is essential to enable stable sensor operation and reproducible in-vivo measurements, paving the way for sensor-enhanced capsule endoscopy and new diagnostic capabilities.


Brief CV

Felix Stadermann (*1998) received his Diploma in Electrical Engineering from Technische Universität Dresden in 2023 specializing in Device-, Micro- and Medical Engineering. During his studies Felix did an internship at the Center for Advanced Life Cycle Engineering at University of Maryland researching failure mechanisms of lead free solder joints during combined mechanical and thermal loads.
Currently he is a PhD student at the Institute of Electronic Packaging Technology (IAVT) at TU Dresden. His research interests include gas sensor packaging technologies with focus on biocompatible materials for medical applications. In addition, his research aims at enhancing the selectivity of metal oxide gas sensors.
Felix has published his research in international coference papers like IEEE Internation Spring Seminar on Electronics Technology (ISSE).
