  • Publication number: 20120181178
    Abstract: A fluidic device is disclosed for making electrophoresis of molecules. The device has channels of closed geometry and variable powers over time. Migration of molecules is contained within channel of closed geometry, whereby they can circulate again and again, thus separating the molecules at a wide migration distance. The device has an injection system which is a secondary channel which intersects the main channel. An arrangement of electrodes along this main channel connected to a variable voltage source with multiple outlets which regulates the value of the electric power in each electrode, and the frequency at which the same varies from one electrode to another. Thus it is achieved to generate a periodic arrangement of powers along the channel which set the flow of the sample optimizing the separation process. Electrodes can be added for the detection of molecules by measuring the changes in electric resistivity, current or voltage.

  • Publication number: 20120098075
    Abstract: An integrated electronic device for detecting gases or biological molecules having a microchip comprising integrated electronics manufactured by the CMOS process. The microchip includes a passivation layer. The passivation layer includes one or more windows configured to cover at least one electronic circuit component of the microchip. The one or more windows leave one or more contacts free. The microchip further includes a sensitive covering coupled with said one or more contacts.

  • Publication number: 20120022792
    Abstract: A method of quantization of magnetic nanoparticle absorption in animal tissues includes determination of the number of magnetic nanoparticles absorbed in animal tissues by magnetization measurements. The method is based on the measurement of magnetization versus magnetic field applied of the tissue sample absorbed with the nanoparticles obtaining their saturation magnetization. This magnitude is compared to the saturation magnetization of the same nanoparticles found in the tissue for the determination of the absolute number of magnetic nanoparticles in the animal tissue studied. The method includes preparing the samples for the sample holder, measuring the magnetization vs. applied magnetic field of a known number of magnetic nanoparticles, determining the saturation magnetization of the sample to be studied by measuring the magnetization and calculating the nanoparticle mass in the tissues from the data measured (saturation magnetization of the sample and of calibration of nanoparticles).
