Deterministic Separation of Cancer Cells from Blood at 10 mL/min [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and circulating clusters of cancer and stromal cells have been identified in the blood of patients with malignant cancer and can be used as a diagnostic for disease severity, assess the efficacy of different treatment ...

Inertial microfluidics with multi-particle collision dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesThe European Physical Journal E, 2012
Using the method of multi-particle collision dynamics (MPCD), we investigate inertial focussing in microfluidic channels that gives rise to the Segré-Silberberg effect. At intermediate Reynolds numbers, we model the motion of a spherical colloid in a circular microchannel under pressure-driven flow.

Development of a microfluidic unit for sequencing fluid samples for composition analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
A microfluidic sample-sequencing unit was developed as a part of a high-throughput catalyst screening facility. It may find applications wherever a fluid is to be selected for analysis from any one of several sources, such as microreactors operating in ...

A review on inertial microfluidic fabrication methods

open access: yesBiomicrofluidics, 2023
In recent decades, there has been significant interest in inertial microfluidics due to its high throughput, ease of fabrication, and no need for external forces. The focusing efficiency of inertial microfluidic systems relies entirely on the geometrical features of microchannels because hydrodynamic forces (inertial lift forces and Dean drag forces ...

Feedback control of inertial microfluidics using axial control forces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Inertial microfluidics is a promising tool for many lab-on-a-chip applications. Particles in channel flows with Reynolds numbers above one undergo cross-streamline migration to a discrete set of equilibrium positions in square and rectangular channel ...

Transport of nonspherical particles in non-Newtonian fluid: A review [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Fluid Engineering
The transport of spherical particles in microchannel flow has been extensively studied owing to its relevance to efficient particle control, particularly in high-throughput cytometry and in single-cell detection and analysis. Despite significant advances

Microscopic Investigation of Vortex Breakdown in a Dividing T-Junction Flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
3D-printed microfluidic devices offer new ways to study fluid dynamics. We present the first clear visualization of vortex breakdown in a dividing T-junction flow. By individual control of the inflow and two outflows, we decouple the effects of swirl and

Stretchable Inertial Microfluidic Device for Tunable Particle Separation [PDF]

open access: yesAnalytical Chemistry, 2020
Inertial microfluidics is a promising approach for particle separation because of the superior advantages of high throughput, simplicity, precise manipulation, and low cost. However, the current obstacle of inertial microfluidics in biological applications is the broad size distribution of biological microparticles.

Study on Electrical Performance of a U-Type Microfluidic Acceleration Switch Using Salt Solution as the Sensitive Electrode

open access: yesSensors, 2020
The threshold of microfluidic inertial switch is excessively dependent on the size of the passive valve structure and the gas–liquid surface energy of working liquid.

High performance microfluidic rectifiers for viscoelastic fluid flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The flow of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids within microfluidic rectifiers with a hyperbolic shape was investigated to assess the effect of the bounding walls on the diodicity of the microfluidic device and achieve high flow anisotropy.
