In this paper, we evaluate the strategy of using self-assembled microbeads to build a robust and tunable membrane for free-flow zone electrophoresis in a PDMS microfluidic chip. To fabricate a porous membrane as a salt bridge for free-flow zone electrophoresis, we used silica or polystyrene microbeads between 3-6 μm in diameter and packed them inside a microchannel. After complete evaporation, ...

In this paper, the rare earth mining area of southern Ganzhou in Jiangxi Province, China is taken as a study area. And the ecology quality evaluation mode based on remote sensing technology was built up to assess the ecology equality status of the opencast mine area. In order to determine the influence sphere on the surrounding ecology quality, the buffer zone method was introduced. The result ...

We have previously demonstrated up to 5 × 10(5)-fold enrichment of anionic analytes in a microchannel using a technique called bipolar electrode focusing (BEF). Here, we demonstrate that BEF can also be used to enrich a cationic fluorescent tracer. The important point is that chemical modification of the microchannel walls enables reversal of the electroosmotic flow (EOF), enabling cations, ins...
