Simple transporter trafficking model for amphetamine-induced dopamine efflux
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2007-07)
Amphetamine and its derivatives are important drugs of abuse causing both short-term excitatory and long-term addictive effects. The short-term excitatory effects are linked to amphetamine's ability to maintain high levels ...
Cost-effective thermal isolation techniques for use on microfabricated DNA amplification and analysis devices
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2005-01-01)
In this paper, we describe the design, construction and operation of two low cost thermal isolation techniques on a microfabricated DNA amplification and analysis device. The thermal conduit technique is based on a selective ...
Surface-modified polyolefin microfluidic devices for liquid handling
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2005-11-01)
Polymer-based microfluidic devices offer an attractive platform for single-use disposable applications due to their low cost, ease of fabrication and good biocompatibility. In this work, we investigated liquid handling in ...
A versatile microreactor platform featuring a chemical-resistant microvalve array for addressable multiplex syntheses and assays
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2006-08-01)
A versatile microreactor platform featuring a novel chemical-resistant microvalve array has been developed using combined silicon/polymer micromachining and a special polymer membrane transfer process. The basic valve unit ...
The density of critical percolation clusters touching the boundaries of strips and squares
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2007-06-01)
We consider the density of two-dimensional critical percolation clusters, constrained to touch one or both boundaries, in infinite strips, half-infinite strips and squares, as well as several related quantities for the ...
Quantitative predictions of linear viscoelastic rheological properties of entangled polymers
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 2000-11)
The “dual constraint” model developed by Mead, Van Dyke et al. is here extended by inclusion of “early-time” contour-length fluctuations and constraint-release Rouse relaxation, and then evaluated by comparing its predictions ...
Unified Solution of the Expected Maximum of a Discrete Time Random Walk and the Discrete Flux to a Spherical Trap
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, Inc., 2006-03)
Two random-walk related problems which have been studied independently in the past, the expected maximum of a random walker in one dimension and the flux to a spherical trap of particles undergoing discrete jumps in three ...

Existence of a critical carbon number in the aging of a wax-oil gel
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2001-09)
A fundamental study was carried out to understand the aging (or hardening) of the wax-oil gels formed in the subsea pipelines during the flow of crude oil from offshore wells to shore. The aging process is a counterdiffusion ...
