Electron-transport system automated

In methanol, the hybrid system behaves as a reagent and can be used in automated microfluorometers to assay potassium in the range of 0-6 mM in the presence of 500-3000 fold excess of sodium (Na ) with 99% accuracy. The fluorescent chemosensor also serves as a tool for studying rates of transport of across biological membranes. A mechanism based on photo-induced electron transfer explains the observed fluorescence enhancement caused by K binding. 

A vehicle is a device used to transport objects and equipped with a powered locomotion system and a steering system. A vehicle can be guided by an operator (driver) or by an electronic controller. In this last case the vehicle is usually named automated guided vehicle (AGV). 

In the fabrication of microfluidic structures for lab-on-a-chip applications, the integration of the fluidic, biological, and electronic modules in the same substrates must be assured. Additionally, those small and precise structures must guarantee the correct manipulation of micro- and nanoliter quantities of samples and reagents (Auroux et al., 2002 Kovarik and Jacobson, 2009). A fully automated system for fluids control (injection, transport, reaction, and measurement) is required for any...
