Why the move to microfluidics for protein analysis?
There has been a recent trend towards the miniaturization of analytical tools, but what are the advantages of microfluidic devices and when is their use appropriate? Recent advances in the field of micro-analytical systems can be classified according to instrument performance (which refers here to the desired property of the analytical tool of interest) and two important features specifically r...
متن کاملDynamics analysis of microparticles in inertial microfluidics for biomedical applications
Inertial microfluidics-based devices have recently attracted much interest and attention due to their simple structure, high throughput, fast processing and low cost. They have been utilised in a wide range of applications in microtechnology, especially for sorting and separating microparticles. This novel class of microfluidics-based devices works based on intrinsic forces, which cause micropa...
متن کاملWhy move the eyes if we can move the head?
To see while moving is a very basic and integrative sensorimotor function in vertebrates. To maintain visual acuity, the oculomotor system provides efficient compensatory eye movements for head and visual field displacements. Other types of eye movement allow the selection of new visual targets and binocular vision and stereopsis. Motor and premotor neuronal circuits involved in the genesis and...
متن کاملMicrofluidics for Protein Crystallization
We employ the PhaseChip, a (poly)dimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microfluidic device, for statistical studies of protein crystal nucleation. The PhaseChip is designed to decouple nucleation and growth of protein crystals and so improve their yield and quality. Two layers of fluidic channels containing salt reservoirs and nanoliter-sized wells for protein drops in oil are separated by a thin PDMS membra...
متن کاملIt’s time to move from “what” to “why”
For example, it has long been recognized that single exponential forecasting (SES) is equivalent to an ARIMA(0,1,1) model (e.g., Harvey, 1989) The additional flexibility of ARIMA models may be thought to lead to more accurate empirical forecasts. However, Table 13 of Makridakis and Hibon shows that there is virtually no improvement in forecasting accuracy using ARIMA models (labeled B-J automat...
