    Abstract: An apparatus and method of using the same are provided for generating a gradient of particles within a microfluidic device. The microfluidic device includes a channel having an input and an output. The channel is filled with a predetermined fluid. Thereafter, particles from a source pass through a porous membrane into the input of the channel. A second membrane is provided adjacent the output of the channel to minimize convection therein. A sink communicates with the output of the channel. The source/sink combination creates a pseudo-steady state in the channel wherein the concentration of particles at a point does not vary dramatically with time.

    Abstract: A microfluidic device and method is provided for handheld diagnostics and assays. A first substance is frozen in a cryopreservation fluid in a first well of a lid. The lid includes a first surface communicating with a first port of the first well and a second surface communicating with a second port of the first well. A porous membrane is affixed to the first surface so as to overlap the first port and a non-porous membrane is affixed to the second surface so as to overlap the second port. The first substance may be dialytically freed from the cryopreservation fluid at a user desired time. Thereafter, the lid may be moved from a first position wherein the lid is spaced from a base to a second position wherein the lid is adjacent the channel in the base such that the first substance communicates with the input of the channel.

    Abstract: Methods of isolating weakly interacting molecules in a fluidic sample using an immiscible phase filtration technique are disclosed. A complex is formed between a solid phase substrate, a molecule immobilized on the solid phase substrate, and at least one target molecule present in the fluidic sample. The complex is transferred into an immiscible phase by applying an external force to the solid phase substrate. The methods eliminate the need for complex and time consuming washing steps.

    Abstract: A micro device and method are provided for examining and testing a slice of a biological object, such as brain tissue. The micro device includes a body defining a chamber and a channel in communication with the chamber. A stimulation fluid flows axially along a flow path in the channel and engages a user selectable region of the slice. An array of electrodes in the chamber engages the slice and allows for the multi-channel electrical recording and stimulation of the slice at each of the electrode sites.

    Abstract: A compact active vapor compression cycle heat transfer device. The device of the invention includes a flexible diaphragm serving as the compressive member in a layered compressor. The compressor is stimulated by capacitive electrical action and drives the relatively small refrigerant charge for the device through a closed loop defined by the compressor, an evaporator and a condenser. The evaporator and condenser include microchannel heat exchange elements to respectively draw heat from an atmosphere on a cool side of the device and expel heat into an atmosphere on a hot side of the device. The overall structure and size of the device is similar to microelectronic packages, and it may be combined to operate with similar devices in useful arrays.
