Annual report: September 2004 to November 2005.
Because the Annual General Meeting of the Academy of Canadian Executive Nurses (ACEN) was moved to November from September, this report covers a 14-month period. During this time, ACEN has taken on a new identity on the national front. We have implemented the decisions taken at the last annual meeting related to changes in membership categories and fees, establishing a national office and incre...

The hot embossing of thermoplastic materials, such as polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) or cycloolefin copolymer (COC), is a promising way to manufacture microfluidic channels and networks [1]. Hot embossing potentially offers lower per-area cost than the micromachining of quartz or silicon and easier scaling-up of production than soft lithography using polydimethylsiloxane [2]. In hot embossing, a...

In this work, we have developed a simple microfluidic chip that can sort biomolecules based on their isoelectric point (pI) values in a simple buffer system. The new method differs from previous approaches such as transverse isoelectric focusing [1] or free-flow electrophoresis [2] in that this process involves no external power supply and no special ampholyte. Instead, we utilize the diffusion...

Of the millions of molecular species floating in air or dissolved in water, a substantial fraction can be smelled and uniquely discriminated[1]. Biological systems achieve this functionality with a multitude of non-specific receptors. In this project, we are developing gas sensors based on combinatorial arrays of organic transistors. The combinatorial approach reduces the need to develop specif...

This project utilizes microfluidic systems to study how groups of liver cells acquire emergent tissue properties. Hepatocytes (the parenchymal cells of the liver) respond to many cues in their microenvironment: neighboring cells, growth factors, extracellular matrix, dissolved oxygen, and their interactions. One tissue property of interest is the compartmentalization of gene expression in multi...
