摘要:
The invention describes a method for the synthesis of compounds comprising the steps of: (a) compartmentalising two or more sets of primary compounds into microcapsules; such that a proportion of the microcapsules contains two or more compounds; and (b) forming secondary compounds in the microcapsules by chemical reactions between primary compounds from different sets; wherein one or both of steps (a) and (b) is performed under microfluidic control; preferably electronic microfluidic control The invention further allows for the identification of compounds which bind to a target component of a biochemical system or modulate the activity of the target, and which is co-compartmentalised into the microcapsules.

Devices, systems, kits, and methods for detecting and/or identifying a plurality of spectrally labeled bodies well-suited for performing multiplexed assays. By spectrally labeling the beads with materials which generate identifiable spectra, a plurality of beads may be identified within the fluid. Reading of the beads is facilitated by restraining the beads in arrays, and/or using a focused laser.

The present invention relates to a catalysis apparatus for testing catalysts with variable process pressure adjustment over a pressure range from 0.01 millibar to 300 bar. The apparatus preferably has a plurality of reaction chambers (101, 102, . . . ) arranged in parallel, the reaction chamber outlet-side lines (211, 212, . . . ) of which are divided into two groups of sub-lines. One group of main lines (411, 412, . . . ) is operatively connected to a regulating valve (61), which is common to all of the main lines, and to an exhaust-air line (62), and the second group of secondary lines (311, 312, 313, . . . ) and switching valves (321, 322, . . . ) is operatively connected to an analysis unit (34). It is preferable for reaction chamber outlet-side lines (201, 202, . . . ) to be equipped in each case with a separate line for regulating fluid supply (211, 212, . . . ). In a preferred embodiment, the connecting points of the reaction chamber outlet-side lines (201, 202, . . . ) to the respective main lines (411, 412, . . . ) and secondary lines (311, 312, . . . ) have in each case one mixing vessel (301, 302, . . . ).

摘要:
A static fluid and a second fluid are placed into contact along a microfluidic free interface and allowed to mix by diffusion without convective flow across the interface. In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, the fluids are static and initially positioned on either side of a closed valve structure in a microfluidic channel having a width that is tightly constrained in at least one dimension. The valve is then opened, and no-slip layers at the sides of the microfluidic channel suppress convective mixing between the two fluids along the resulting interface. Applications for microfluidic free interfaces in accordance with embodiments of the present invention include, but are not limited to, protein crystallization studies, protein solubility studies, determination of properties of fluidics systems, and a variety of biological assays such as diffusive immunoassays, substrate turnover assays, and competitive binding assays.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for handling product fluid streams which are obtained in the catalytic hydrogenation of liquid feeds in laboratory catalysis apparatuses. The liquid feeds are preferably hydrocarbons comprising sulfur- and nitrogen-comprising compounds as impurities. The hydrogenation serves to convert the impurities into hydrogen sulfide and ammonia which in this form can be readily separated off from the other constituents of the liquid feed. The product fluid streams are contacted with an inert gas stream, with the flow rate of the inert gas being a multiple of the flow rate of the product fluid stream. The formation of deposits in lines of the region on the outlet side of the reaction space can be effectively prevented by means of the process of the invention.
