A foldable bow saw movable between a functional saw condition and a folded packable condition includes a handle arm, a top bar, a short arm, a saw blade, and a lever arm, all pivotally connected one to the other with an end of the handle arm and an end of the lever arm forming free, unconnected ends of the assembly. The free end of the handle arm includes a connecting fulcrum surface adapted to removably mate with a fulcrum surface receiver in the lever arm. Rotation of the lever arm in a locking direction about the fulcrum surface moves the pivotal connection of the lever arm to the saw blade to a tensioned functional saw condition. Rotation of the lever arm in an unlocking direction allows the fulcrum surface to be removed from the fulcrum surface receiver and the assembly to be folded to the packable condition.

An apparatus and method are disclosed for the precise selection and extraction of a selected analyte in a focused zone produced by isoelectric focusing performed in micro-channels. A cross-channel microfluidic device comprises a sample mixture introduction and separation channel and an extraction channel, which are in fluid communication with each other at a point of intersection. Means are provided for selectively moving the pattern of separated zones following cIEF to the intersection point, and means are provided for applying an extraction pressure to direct a single zone containing a selected analyte into and then out of the extraction channel for collection.
