1. Properties of Fluids

   21 Jan 2020 | | Contributor(s):: Astrid Hernandez, NNCI Nano

   This lab explores the properties of water flow. This inquiry-based lab consists of 2 sections: the Guided Lab Activity and the Going Further (research) portion. The guided lab activity, performed on the first day, is designed to help students observe and understand the way fluids interact with...

2. Gelatin Microfluidics

   13 Jan 2020 | | Contributor(s):: Javier Cervantes, NNCI Nano

   This lab shows the importance of channel design in biotechnology and nanotechnology and the methods used to study the behavior of fluids as they flow through a channel.  Students will create and test a microfluidic device by creating narrow channels in gelatin, injecting dye in the...

3. Lab on a Slab: Microfluidics Activity

   13 Jan 2020 | | Contributor(s):: John Gomm, NNCI Nano

   Microfluidics is a technique for manipulating liquid samples. With one drop of liquid sample, small devices and channels can be used with nanoparticles for sensitive detection of chemicals. In this lab, students will create a fluidic device with agar gel and use it to test and diagnose three...

4. Droplet Microfluidics for High-Throughput Chemical Analysis and Experimentation

   04 Apr 2019 | | Contributor(s):: Robert Kennedy

   Manipulating samples as droplets within microfluidic devices has emerged as an interesting approach for chemical analysis and screening. In segmented flow, one embodiment of this technology, nanoliter samples are manipulated in microfluidic channels as plugs separated by an immiscible fluid, such...

5. Birck Science Communication Shark Tank Compititon 2018

   17 Jan 2019 |

   The Science Communication Shark Tank competition and workshop gives students a chance to learn and train master storyteller skills in the best possible way: by playing a real-life game.
