Predicting Dimensions in Microfluidic Paper Based Analytical Devices

Sensors, 2020
The main problem for the expansion of the use of microfluidic paper-based analytical devices and, thus, their mass production is their inherent lack of fluid flow control due to its uncontrolled fabrication protocols.

Electrofusion of single cells in picoliter droplets

Scientific Reports, 2018
We present a microfluidic chip that enables electrofusion of cells in microdroplets, with exchange of nuclear components. It is shown, to our knowledge for the first time, electrofusion of two HL60 cells, inside a microdroplet.
