Abstract: A biosensor detector device is disclosed suitable for use in measuring membrane fluidity or membrane permeability. The biosensor detector device is formed of a solid substrate having a lipid bilayer compatible surface, a multi-lamellar lipid membrane structure derived from a biological cell and localized on the lipid bilayer compatible surface, an aqueous layer interposed between each lipid bilayer of the multi-lamellar lipid membrane structure. The biological membrane is derived from human red blood cells and localized on the lipid bilayer compatible surface. An electrode forming all or part of the lipid bilayer compatible surface may be used to detect disruptions in the multi-lamellar lipid membrane structure and hemolytic activity in a test sample.

Abstract: The present invention provides a chlorine retention reservoir for a toilet. The chlorine retention reservoir comprises a housing having a base and a sidewall forming an interior volume with an open upper end. The open upper end includes a lip extending perpendicularly from the sidewall disposed around a perimeter thereof, wherein the lip receives a channel of a lid. The housing further includes an input port and an output port that receive a liquid therethrough. A plurality of baffles are disposed within the interior volume of the housing. A slot is disposed on an exterior surface of the housing, wherein the slot receives a fastener. The fastener removably secures the housing to an interior surface of a tank of a toilet. A chlorine tablet is placed within the housing where it is subjected to incoming water from a flush creating a chlorine solution that is discharged to a toilet bowl.
