    Abstract: Vestibular stimulation systems, control systems, doses, and methods of use are provided. Generally, the vestibular stimulation system disclosed includes a restraint system (e.g. a chair) that holds a subject in a position relative to the system. The subject can then be rotated around one, two or three rotational axes individually or simultaneously in a controlled manner. A computer system controls the vestibular system function and collects and stores data. Specific amounts or doses of stimuli can be administered. Physiological responses to various types of vestibular stimulation can then be tested and recorded.

    Abstract: A microfabricated device, manifold system and method for electrokinetically moving biological and chemical samples including a multiplexed detection chamber for receiving a plurality of adjacent sample streams to be detected. The device includes a plurality of adjacent input channels connected to the detection chamber via an enlarged section having an expanding taper at its widest end or other shapes so that adjacent sample streams enter the detection chamber and remain discrete for a threshold distance to the detection chamber to minimize lateral diffusion.

    Abstract: A microfluidic analytical apparatus (10) comprising a microfluidic card pairing (12) with a corresponding circuit card (14) and the circuit card pairing (12) with corresponding conductive fingers (16). The microfluidic card (12) has a plurality of channels (32) and ports (54) on a top surface of the card in a desired configuration, the ports (54) in fluid communication with the channels (32). The circuit card (14) has a plurality of conductive pins (60) projecting from a bottom surface of the card and having a configuration that corresponds to the particular configuration of the ports (54) of the microfluidic card (12) that it is paired with. The circuit card (14) is received within a holder (20) that provides that provides multiple functions. Conductive pads (18) are disposed on a top surface of the circuit card (14), the pads (18) in electrical communication with the conductive pins (60) and corresponding to a configuration of conductive fingers (16) connected to a power source to provide voltage to the microfluidic card (12) for analytical operations. Additionally, detection difficulties associates with non-uniformities present on the card surface are overcome using a detection system incorporating a compliantly mounted microscopic head.
