Soil analyzer using capilary eletrophoresis microchip

Supervisors: S.K Jha (Biomedical Engineering) S Basu (Chemical Engineering)

We shall develop a benchtop device for complex analysis of soil components using capillary electrophoresis microchip detector, which would separate the analytes (insecticides, pesticides, urea, herbicides) prior to their electrochemical detection. Student shall have to design the microfluidic channel and fabricate microelectrodes; test the analytes using biosensing method and develop a reusable deployable prototype for field trial at IARI, PUSA.
