Manipulation of droplets in microfluidic systems
TrAC Trends in Analytical Chemistry, 2010Abstract Since the start of micro total analysis systems, manipulation of droplets in a microfluidic channel has been one of the most important branches of microfluidics. The scale of the droplet is remarkably small so that its mixing and reaction are rapid.

Microfluidic Droplet Manipulations and Their Applications
2012“Droplet microfluidics” enables the manipulation of discrete fluid packets in the form of microdroplets that provide numerous benefits for conducting biological and chemical assays. Among these benefits are a large reduction in the volume of reagent required for assays, the size of sample required, and the size of the equipment itself.

A light-induced dielectrophoretic droplet manipulation platform
Lab on a Chip, 2009We report on a light-actuated, droplet based microfluidic platform enabling two-dimensional (2D) droplet manipulation on an open chamber with a single-side, featureless photoconductive surface. The droplet actuation mechanism is based on recently demonstrated floating electrode optoelectronic tweezers (FEOET), which enable light-induced ...

Bioinspired Multifunctional Janus Particles for Droplet Manipulation
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2012Inspired by the nipple arrays covering mosquitoes' eyes and the heterogeneous textured bumps on beetles' backs, we have developed a new kind of Janus particle with multiplexed features, such as different boss arrays and wettability compartmentalized on the same surface, and an anisotropic color and magnetic properties.

Tunable Droplet Manipulation and Characterization by ac-DEP
ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2018A novel ac-dielectrophoretic (DEP) device for tunable manipulation and characterization of particles and droplets is presented in this work. To induce DEP forces, the ac electric field is applied via two embedded microelectrodes to generate a local nonuniform electric field perpendicular to the channel length through a pair of asymmetric orifices on ...

Enzymatic Reaction in Droplets Manipulated with Liquid Dielectrophoresis
ChemPhysChem, 2012AbstractDroplet generation and transportation for biological reactions are conducted with liquid dielectrophoresis (LDEP), forming two hundred picoliter droplets and aligning them in an open environment above the micro‐machined electrodes. The generation of the dielectrophoresis signals was critically examined to actuate droplets in biological ...

INTEGRATED MICROFLUIDIC DEVICE FOR DROPLET MANIPULATION
2013Droplets based microfluidic systems have a big potential for the miniaturization of processes for bioanalysis. In the form of droplets, reagents are used in discrete volume, enabling high-throughput chemical reactions as well as single-cell encapsulation. Microreactors of this type can be manipulated and applied in bio-testing.
