Foodstuffs analysis is very important due to population growth and increasing consumer demand for safety and nutritional excellence. The Analysis of different compounds in foodstuffs is so difficult without using sample preparation techniques. Traditional techniques require large amounts of toxic organic solvents. As a result, they are not only expensive but also environmentally unfriendly and ...

Since solid-phase and liquid-phase microextraction (SPME and LPME) were introduced, as effective solvent-free methods, many efforts have been made to improve their modes and applications. However, due to limitations with sensitivity and efficiency, researchers have focused on improving the performance of their basic primary modes. In this way, in recent years, different methods such as ultrason...

High-efficiency transfection of genes, proteins, or drug compounds into cells without causing permanent damage is a prerequisite for many cell biology experiments. Here, we report a printed circuit board (PCB)-based electroporation device for high-throughput delivery of exogenous molecules into cells in an individually addressable manner. This device incorporates an array of 96 through-holes on...

For cytogenetic studies it is necessary to develop an efficient method of chromosome preparation with wellpreserved and dispersed chromosomes and little or no cell-wall debris. In this study, we describe a method for obtaining high quality chromosomal preparations of dipteran cells. This procedure combines drop method and air-dry technique and produces a cell suspension with separated and mixed...

'A basic and basically unsolved problem in fluid dynamics is to determine the evolution of rising bubbles falling drops one miscible liquid another' [1]. Here, we address this important literature gap present first theory predicting velocity, volume composition such at low Reynolds numbers. For case where diffusion out drop negligible, obtain a universal scaling law. more general occurs into dr...

We implement a volume-of-fluid algorithm with a parabolic re-construction of the interface for the calculation of the surface tension force VOF-PROST). This achieves higher accuracy for drop deformation simulations in comparison with existing VOF methods based on a piecewise inear interface re-construction. The algorithm is formulated for the Giesekus constitutive law. The evolution of a drop s...
