Microfluidics for effective concentration and sorting of waterborne protozoan pathogens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We report on an inertial focussing based microfluidics technology for concentrating waterborne protozoa, achieving a 96% recovery rate of Cryptosporidium parvum and 86% for Giardia lamblia at a throughput (mL/min) capable of replacing centrifugation. The

Optofluidic fabrication for 3D-shaped particles. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Complex three-dimensional (3D)-shaped particles could play unique roles in biotechnology, structural mechanics and self-assembly. Current methods of fabricating 3D-shaped particles such as 3D printing, injection moulding or photolithography are limited ...

Particle pairs and trains in inertial microfluidics [PDF]

open access: yesThe European Physical Journal E, 2020
Abstract.Staggered and linear multi-particle trains constitute characteristic structures in inertial microfluidics. Using lattice-Boltzmann simulations, we investigate their properties and stability, when flowing through microfluidic channels. We confirm the stability of cross-streamline pairs by showing how they contract or expand to their equilibrium

Optimization of micropillar sequences for fluid flow sculpting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Inertial fluid flow deformation around pillars in a microchannel is a new method for controlling fluid flow. Sequences of pillars have been shown to produce a rich phase space with a wide variety of flow transformations.

Microfluidic particle sorting utilizing inertial lift force [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedical Microdevices, 2010
A simple passive microfluidic device that continuously separates microparticles is presented. Its development is motivated by the need for specific size micro perfluorocarbon (PFC) droplets to be used for a novel gas embolotherapy method. The device consists of a rectangular channel in which inertial lift forces are utilized to separate particles in ...
