Abstract: A communication system is described which is adapted to enable a remote user to obtain
information relating to one or more services or products. The system maintains a
datastore of registered users and available products. A user supplies an identifier relating
to a relevant product via a communication channel to the system. Based on the identifier

Abstract: An analysis device includes an electrode arrangement, a current/voltage provider, and a circuit analyzer. The electrode arrangement has an interdigitated electrode pair including a first electrode and a second electrode. Coupled to the electrode arrangement is a signal generator adapted to provide a signal (e.g., an alternating current or voltage) having a selected range of frequencies. The analyzer is coupled to the electrode arrangement and is operative to analyze an electrical parameter of the circuit as the signal is applied. An analytic method includes measuring changes in one or more parameters of the circuit over the range of frequencies. By such measurement, the device can determine whether a target moiety has been bound by a probe attached to the electrode(s). The device can also specifically identify the intermolecular system detected, i.e., by 'finger-printing ' the electrical response of each molecule or intermolecular complex.
