Vanguard Health Care Fund Annual Report January 31, 2017

Report of the Poison Control Centre for the period 1 November 2005 - 31 January 2006.

The Croatian national Poison Control Centre, a health service founded in 1974 by the Institute for Medical Research and Occupational Health in Zagreb, provides a 24-hour telephone guidance for poisoning emergencies, information and consultations on toxic exposure for occupational health physicians, professional and public health education in toxicology and poison control and other poison preven...

MTL Annual Research Report 2004-2005

The hot embossing of thermoplastic materials, such as polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) or cycloolefin copolymer (COC), is a promising way to manufacture microfluidic channels and networks [1]. Hot embossing potentially offers lower per-area cost than the micromachining of quartz or silicon and easier scaling-up of production than soft lithography using polydimethylsiloxane [2]. In hot embossing, a...

In this work, we have developed a simple microfluidic chip that can sort biomolecules based on their isoelectric point (pI) values in a simple buffer system. The new method differs from previous approaches such as transverse isoelectric focusing [1] or free-flow electrophoresis [2] in that this process involves no external power supply and no special ampholyte. Instead, we utilize the diffusion...

Of the millions of molecular species floating in air or dissolved in water, a substantial fraction can be smelled and uniquely discriminated[1]. Biological systems achieve this functionality with a multitude of non-specific receptors. In this project, we are developing gas sensors based on combinatorial arrays of organic transistors. The combinatorial approach reduces the need to develop specif...
