Abstract
A method including determining a concentration of one or more components of a fluid during a wellbore servicing operation of a wellbore, and providing a trigger signal to actuate mechanical operation of a tool based on the determining of the concentration of the one or more components. The determining of the concentration of the one or more components includes contacting a sample of the fluid with a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) device to provide a sample response indicative of the concentration of the one or more components.
