Computational Inertial Microfluidics: Optimal Design for Particle Separation
Following the emergence of many blood transfusion-associated diseases, novel passive cell separation technologies, such as microfluidic devices, are increasingly designed and optimized to separate red blood cells (RBCs) and white blood cells (WBCs) from ...

WNK kinases sense molecular crowding and rescue cell volume via phase separation
When challenged by hypertonicity, dehydrated cells must defend their volume to survive. This process requires the phosphorylation-dependent regulation of SLC12 cation chloride transporters by WNK kinases, but how these kinases are activated by cell ...

Phase Separation in Cell Division
Cell division requires the assembly and organization of a microtubule spindle for the proper separation of chromosomes in mitosis and meiosis. Phase separation is an emerging paradigm for understanding spatial and temporal regulation of a variety of cellular processes, including cell division.

[18] Electrophoretic separation of lymphoid cells [PDF]
Publisher Summary This chapter explores the dissection of a complex system into its components, their separate analysis, and the controlled reconstitution is a scientific principle that has been used quite successfully in biochemistry. Its application in immunology calls for techniques for large-scale separation of highly pure and functionally intact

Microfluidic Devices for Blood Fractionation
Blood, a complex biological fluid, comprises 45% cellular components suspended in protein rich plasma. These different hematologic components perform distinct functions in vivo and thus the ability to efficiently fractionate blood into its individual ...
