Week 6

Overview of Status of Analysis, Design, Fabrication, Tests, etc.

• • Currently testing the paramagnetic method

    • What happens in neighboring wells

      • Does surface tension of the water hold neighboring beads in wells?

      • Put a drop on ipad w/ FeO and lower needle microns from drop

        • Do beads erupt out of water

        • Try different dilution ratios 

    • What happens when non magnetized needle is dipped into microtiter w/ iron oxide

    •  Try different needle and magnet combinations.

  • Design of mount for camera.
