Abstract:
A micro sensing system for real-time sensing a neurotrophic factor included in a body fluid includes a body, a neurotrophic factor channel formed in the body to allow a fluid flow therein, and a biosensor formed at the body to sense the neurotrophic factor, wherein the body fluid is extracted in a living body through the neurotrophic factor channel, and wherein the biosensor is disposed on a path of the neurotrophic factor channel to directly contact a body fluid flowing through the neurotrophic factor channel and senses a concentration of a neurotrophic factor in the body fluid.
Abstract:
A neural probe structure has a probe having a microfluidic channel. The probe is inserted into an inside of a subject. A body to which the probe is fixed has a fluid entrance communicating with the microfluidic channel. A cover element is fixed to the body to cover the fluid entrance. The cover element has a connecting opening to which an external conduit is connected, and a fluid delivery channel extending such that the connecting opening and the fluid entrance are in fluid communication. A fluid fed from the external conduit flows along the fluid delivery channel, goes into the fluid entrance, and is delivered to the subject through the microfluidic channel.
Abstract:
As an apparatus for manufacturing a micro lens array includes a first substrate having a plurality of cavities formed at locations corresponding to locations of the plurality of micro lenses, and a second substrate having a lower softening point than the first substrate and bonded on the first substrate to close the plurality of cavities, wherein a portion of the second substrate located on the cavities swells convexly by air trapped in the cavities expanding its volume in response to a temperature above the softening point of the second substrate being applied, to form domes corresponding to a shape of the micro lenses, and the micro lens array is cast using the second substrate having the formed domes as a mold.
