Advances in three-dimensional rapid prototyping of microfluidic devices for biological applications
The capability of 3D printing technologies for direct production of complex 3D structures in a single step has recently attracted an ever increasing interest within the field of microfluidics. Recently, ultrafast lasers have also allowed developing new methods for production of internal microfluidic channels within the bulk of glass and polymer materials by direct internal 3D laser writing. This review critically summarizes the latest advances in the production of microfluidic 3D structures by using 3D printing technologies and direct internal 3D laser writing fabrication methods. Current applications of these rapid prototyped microfluidic platforms in biology will be also discussed. These include imaging of cells and living organisms, electrochemical detection of viruses and neurotransmitters, and studies in drug transport and induced-release of adenosine triphosphate from erythrocytes
Terror from behind the keyboard: conceptualising faceless detractors and guarantors of security in cyberspace
By reflecting on active public-domain government documents and statements, this article seeks to develop securitisation theoryâs articulation of the dichotomy between legitimate and illegitimate violence as it is reflected in British government policy. This dichotomy has (re)developed through a process wherein GCHQ and MI5 are portrayed as âfaceless guarantorsâ of security, in Manichean juxtaposition to the discursively-created phantom cyberterrorists, who are presented as âfaceless detractorsâ of security. It has previously been stated that the terrorism discourse associated with the present âWar on Terrorâ is attributed, in part, to mechanics of fantasy. I argue that, within the securitised discourse of cyberterrorism, the limits of fantasy possesses a murky nuance, which in turn, allows for a deeper - or at least more entrenched - securitisation. The official discourse surrounding the intelligence servicesâ online surveillance apparatus operates with a similar opaque quality, but this is upheld by securitising actors as a strength to be maintained
