Application of micro-calorimeter for metabolic monitoring
This project aims to develop an optimized experimental set-up of a microcalorimeter for metabolic monitoring applications. In order for an optimization to take place, a PolyDiMethylSiloxane (PDMS) cover was designed and fabricated to reduce the external noise which will in turn improve the accuracy...
