Gas Flowmeter Calibrations with the 34 L and 677 L PVTt Standards

June 23, 2004
Author(s)
John D. Wright, Aaron N. Johnson, Michael R. Moldover, Gina M. Kline
This document provides a description of the 34 L and 677 L pressure, volume, temperature, and time (PVTt) primary gas flow standards operated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Fluid Flow Group. These facilities are used to

Elastic Flow Instability, Curved Streamlines and Mixing in Microfluidic Flows

Jai A. Pathak, David J. Ross, Kalman D. Migler
Flow instabilities are well known to occur in macroscopic flows when elastic fluids flow along curved streamlines. In this work we use flow visualization to study the mechanism underlying a purely elastic flow instability for Poiseuille flow in a micro (m)

Selective DNA Sensing Elements Integrated Into Microfluidic Channels

December 1, 2003
Author(s)
Rebecca A. Zangmeister, Michael J. Tarlov
This paper describes the development of a unique fluorescence based DNA diagnostic assay that does not require pre-labeling of the target oligomer prior to analysis. The assay uses polyacrylamide hydrogel plugs immobilized in microfluidic channels, and is

Temperature Metrology and Its Impact on Industry

September 1, 2003
Author(s)
Hratch G. Semerjian, Ellyn S. Beary
Temperature measurement represents one of the most frequently and broadly used measurements, with a majority of products manufactured having temperature measurement devices as an esential component. The accuracy and precision of these temperature

Refrigeration Methods for Superconductors

December 1, 2002
Author(s)
Ray Radebaugh
This chapter reviews various methods commonly used for achieving the cryogenic temperatures required of superconducting materials. The problems associated with cryogenic refrigerators (cryocoolers), such as poor reliability, low efficiency, electromagnetic

DNA Hydrogel Plugs Immobilized in Microfluidic Channels with Improved Stability

February 28, 2002
Author(s)
Rebecca A. Zangmeister, K G. Olsen, David J. Ross, Michael J. Tarlov
It has been previously demonstrated that DNA, modified on the 5' end with an acrylic acid group, can be incorporated into a polyacrylamide hydrogel matrix. These types of DNA containing gels have recently been immobilized in plastic microfluidic channels

Temperature Measurement and Control in Microfluidic Systems

October 1, 2001
Author(s)
David J. Ross, Michael Gaitan, Laurie E. Locascio
We describe a technique for the measurement of fluid temperatures in microfluidic systems based on temperature-dependent fluorescence. The technique is easy to implement with a standard fluorescence microscope and CCD camera. The efficiency of the method
