A method for controlled production of an array of planar microparticles with the multiplexing of molecules on the surface thereof, intended to function as molecular sensors and/or actuators and a matrix (array) of microparticles, the surface thereof being printed with all of the molecular components required to provide the surface with functionality. Different molecular elements are multiplexed on the surface of each particle while they are supported on a substrate by means of a structural foot engraved below the particle. These microparticles can be released mechanically from the support on which they are produced using a controlled mechanical rupture method which is not chemically aggressive and therefore does not affect the molecules previously printed on the surface. The array and the particles contained therein offer great versatility in both chemical and/or biological applications.

Method for producing an array of planar microparticles with surface molecular multiplexing, resulting array and use thereof

This invention describes a device for the generation of electric energy from small movements which comprises: a magnet with the shape of a solid of revolution which comprises at least a couple of poles (N, S) placed around an axis of revolution; a tube whose transversal section is complementary to the shape of the magnet, and which comprises a winding rolled transversally around it, with the magnet placed in the interior of the tube so that an inclination of the tube causes the magnet to roll, traveling along the interior of the tube and inducing tension on the winding.
