Article Synopsis
  • The paper discusses a new device for making magnetic particles to improve fluid mixing in microfluidic channels, crucial for lab-on-a-chip applications.
  • The fabrication process uses a degassed PDMS chip for self-priming, allowing for quick production of magnetic particles without external pumping, taking less than 10 minutes.
  • The magnetic particles enhance fluid mixing effectiveness at low Reynolds numbers, achieving high mixing indices (over 0.9) for various aqueous solutions and demonstrating effective performance with fluids of different viscosities.

Guanosine-5'-triphosphate (GTP) plays a key role in many important biological processes of cells. It is not only a primer for DNA replication and one of the four essential nucleoside triphosphates for mRNA synthesis, but also an energy source for translation and other important cellular processes. It can be converted to adenine nucleoside triphosphate (ATP), and the intracellular GTP level is closely related to the specific pathological state, so it is crucial to establish a simple and accurate method for the detection of GTP.

Mobile crowdsensing (MCS) is a way to use social resources to solve high-precision environmental awareness problems in real time. Publishers hope to collect as much sensed data as possible at a relatively low cost, while users want to earn more revenue at a low cost. Low-quality data will reduce the efficiency of MCS and lead to a loss of revenue.
