Shrinking microbubbles with microfluidics: mathematical modelling to control microbubble sizes [PDF]

Soft Matter, 2017
Microbubbles have applications in industry and life-sciences. In medicine, small encapsulated bubbles (< 10 μm) are desirable because of their utility in drug/oxygen delivery, sonoporation, and ultrasound diagnostics. While there are various techniques for generating microbubbles, microfluidic methods are distinguished due to their precise control ...

Experimental Inactivation of Microalgae in Marine Ballast Water by Microbubbles Generated through Hydrodynamic Cavitation

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
This paper presents a novel approach to microbubble technology for the treatment of aquatic invasive organisms in ship ballast water. The microbubbles are produced by hydrodynamic cavitation with a sudden and dramatic water pressure drop.

Analysis of the Uncertainty in Microbubble Characterization [PDF]

Ultrasound in Medicine & Biology, 2016
There is increasing interest in the use of microbubble contrast agents for quantitative imaging applications such as perfusion and blood pressure measurement. The response of a microbubble to ultrasound excitation is, however, extremely sensitive to its size, the properties of its coating and the characteristics of the sound field and surrounding ...

Improvement of Detection Sensitivity of Microbubbles as Sensors to Detect Ambient Pressure

Sensors, 2018
Microbubbles are considered a promising tool for noninvasive estimation of local blood pressure. It is reported that the subharmonic scattering amplitude of microbubbles decreases by 9 to 12 dB when immersed in the media under an ambient pressure ...

Applications of Magnetic Microbubbles for Theranostics

Theranostics, 2012
Compared with other diagnostic methods, ultrasound is proven to be a safe, simple, non-invasive and cost-effective imaging technique, but the resolution is not comparable to that of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Contrast-enhanced ultrasound employing

CO2 microbubble colloidal gas aphrons for EOR application: the generation using porous filter, diameter size analysis and gas blocking impact on sweep efficiency

Journal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology, 2019
The CO2 is regarded to be an excellent solvent for miscible flooding. However, it is still facing a main problem which is the high mobility. Microbubbles with their unique characters offer some advantages for CO2 EOR application.
