چکیده
This project aims at developing high-throughput platforms for bioprocess developments. Based on the membraneaerated microbioreactor [1], we have realized a microlitervolume, actively-mixed, and polymer-based microbioreactor by microfabrication and precision machining of PDMS and PMMA for batch [2] and continuous cultures [3] of microbial cells. Biological applications of microbioreactors, such as global gene expression of yeast cells [4], were demonstrated, and the parallel operation of multiple batch fermentations was realized by a multiplexed system [5].

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...
متن کاملP . Bouyer , F . Chevalier and N . Markey About the Expressiveness of TPTL and MTL Research Report LSV - 05 - 05 May 2005
TPTL and MTL are two classical timed extensions of LTL. In this paper, we answer a 15 year old conjecture that TPTL is strictly more expressive than MTL. But we show that, surprisingly, the TPTL formula proposed in [AH90] for witnessing this conjecture can be expressed in MTL. More generally, we show that TPTL formulae using only the F modality can be translated into MTL.

The high efficiency and energy density of miniaturized fuel cells provide an attractive alternative to batteries in the portable power generation market for consumer and military electronic devices [1-3]. The best fuel cell efficiency is typically achieved with hydrogen, but safety and reliability issues remain with current storage options. Consequently, there is continued interest in reforming...

Nanostructured Origami�� describes a method of manufacturing three-dimensional (3D) nanostructures on a silicon wafer. Nanometer-scale structures are best fabricated with various two-dimensional (2D) lithography techniques. This project addresses the problem of building 3D structures using only 2D lithography. The general method of the Nanostructured Origami�� approach involves three steps: lit...

The recent development of “low power” (10’s-100’s of μW) sensing and data transmission devices, as well as protocols with which to connect them efficiently into large, dispersed networks of individual wireless nodes, has created a need for a new kind of power source. Embeddable, non-life-limiting power sources are being developed to harvest ambient environmental energy available as mechanical v...
