A differential viscosity detector for use in miniaturized chemical separation systems

A 1.8 mW 12 channel wireless seizure detector for miniaturized portable EEG systems

There is a well established need for the creation of highly miniaturized, long lasting and comfortable EEG systems. Power consumption, particularly of wireless transmission stages, is a major obstacle to the creation of these new EEG systems. This paper presents a 1.8 mW, 12 channel seizure detection algorithm for providing real-time power reduction of the wireless transmitter. An algorithm tha...

Development of a Systems Engineering Model for Chemical Separation Process

Sequential injection chromatography with a miniaturized multi-channel fiber optic detector for separation and quantification of propranolol and hydrochlorothiazide

BACKGROUND Sequential injection chromatography (SIC) is a new alternative separation technology. It has some advantages over high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) regarding simplicity, inexpensiveness, portability, ease of use, maintenance requirement and operation time. In contrast, SIC has had suffered from some limitations. RESULTS The current work involves four achievements. (a) O...

A Miniaturized SPLITT System for On-Line Protein Separation

The development of a microfluidic module for on-line protein separation is presented in this paper. The device is based on the SPLITT (Split flow Thin fractionation) technique and the separation of proteins is electrically driven by means of two platinum electrodes included in the structure of the microdevice. The microfluidic network is realized by means of a thin dry film structure, Ordyl SY ...

passivity in waiting for godot and endgame: a psychoanalytic reading

this study intends to investigate samuel beckett’s waiting for godot and endgame under the lacanian psychoanalysis. it begins by explaining the most important concepts of lacanian psychoanalysis. the beckettian characters are studied regarding their state of unconscious, and not the state of consciousness as is common in most beckett studies. according to lacan, language plays the sole role in ...
