Abstract

The project is the construction of a high resolution and high accuracy equipment to measure volumes of samples with complex geometries dry. Theoretical projections allowed us to estimate a resolution of the 50 microliters. It was planned to be developed in three phases. The initial phase will address of the design projetct itself and so invitation and selection of students, the intermediate phase will involve acquisition, production and setting of equipment and finally, the last phase will involve the calibration and routine experimental tests.
