    Abstract: Disclosed is a microfluidic device comprising at least one micro-aliquotter for dispensing fixed or variable volumes. The micro-aliquotter includes an rigid, dimensionally stable foundational layer having a fluid port therein that is in fluid communication with a channel within the microfluidic device, and an elastic film positioned on the foundational layer where the film covers the fluid port. The elastic film is sealed to the foundational layer so fluids entering through the fluid port can be captured between the elastic film and the foundational layer. The elastic film being expandable from a rest position on the foundational layer to a dispensing, or aliquotting, position in which an aliquot volume of a fluid is contained between the film and the foundational layer.

    Abstract: A method is provided for constructing a platform for use in a sensor in a microfluidic device. The method may include the steps of selecting a polymeric film, laser drilling at least one frustoconical pore in the film, depositing a layer of metal suitable for use as an electrode over a wall of the pore, and depositing a membrane capable of detecting an analyte in the pore over the metal layer. The method may also include the additional step of forming a diffusion limiting layer in the pore at an exit end of the pore before depositing the membrane capable of detecting an analyte.

    Abstract: A bilateral biosensor based upon a microporous architecture is provided which seeks to reduce the effect of co-reactant concentration limitations by utilizing a new sensor microgeometry. If implemented on the appropriate scale, the new sensor design augments substantially the concentration of oxygen, or other co-reactants or reagents, in the reaction zone of the sensor. Performance enhancements over traditional microscale devices employing unilateral orientation are accomplished, in one embodiment, by allowing analyte to enter the sensor from one side of the sensor, while allowing a co-substrate to enter from both sides of the sensor.

    Abstract: An arc reactor device for producing nitrogen oxides by an arc discharge process includes an electrically conductive casing, defining an arc discharge chamber therein, and an electrically conductive discharge electrode electrically insulated from the casing and extending into the chamber. An arc discharge potential is applied between the discharge electrode and the casing to produce electrical arcing. A starter electrode extends into the chamber and is movable from an extended position in which it contacts the discharge electrode, to a retracted position, in which the starter electrode is out of contact with the discharge electrode. A means for moving the starter electrode from the extended position, at initiation of operation, to the retracted position and maintaining the starter electrode in the retracted position during operation of the arc reactor device includes a solenoid actuator. Air is supplied to the electrically conductive casing from several manifolds which surround the casing. A plurality of orifices extend between manifold chambers, defined by the manifolds, and the discharge chamber with the orifices producing a nonturbulent spiral flow of air in the discharge chamber.
