Microswimmers in Patterned Environments
We demonstrate with experiments and simulations how microscopic self-propelled particles navigate through environments presenting complex spatial features, which mimic the conditions inside cells, living organisms and future lab-on-a-chip devices.

Liquid-infiltrated photonic crystals: Ohmic dissipation and broadening of modes [PDF]
The pronounced light-matter interactions in photonic crystals make them interesting as opto-fludic "building blocks" for lab-on-a-chip applications.

Advances in analytical microfluidic workflows for differential cancer diagnosis
Early detection and functional analysis of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in liquid biopsy rather than counting them offer great promise as physicians can improve differential diagnosis for second‐ or third‐line treatment beyond today's genotype ...

Nanofluidics in Lab-on-a-Chip Devices [PDF]
As the field of nanofluidics matures, fundamental discoveries are being applied to lab-on-a-chip analyses. The unique behavior of matter at the nanoscale is adding new functionality to devices that integrate nanopores or nanochannels. (To listen to a podcast about this feature, please go to the Analytical Chemistry website at pubs.acs.org/journal ...

Fluorescence monitoring of capilarry electrophoresis separation in a lab-on-a-chip with monolithically integrated waveguides [PDF]
Femtosecond-laser-written optical waveguides were monolithically integrated into a commercial lab-on-a-chip to intersect a microfluidic channel. Laser excitation through these waveguides confines the excitation window to a width of 12 μm, enabling high ...

Siphon-Induced Droplet Break-Off for Enhanced Mixing on a Centrifugal Platform
We present a powerful and compact batch-mode mixing and dilution technique for centrifugal microfluidic platforms. Siphon structures are designed to discretize continuous flows into a sequence of droplets of volumes as low as 100 nL.

Direct writing of optical microresonators in a lab-on-a-chip for label-free biosensing.
Whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonators are promising optical structures for microfluidic label-free biosensors mainly due to their high sensitivity, but from a practical point of view they present numerous constraints that make their use in real ...
