Pressure-Driven Filling of Closed-End Microchannel: Realization of Comb-Shaped Transducers for Acoustofluidics [PDF]

, 2018
We demonstrate the complete filling of both deionized water (DI water) and liquid metal (eutectic gallium-indium, EGaIn) into closed-end microchannels driven by a constant pressure at the inlet.

Bifunctional Surfaces With Immobilized Antibodies and Bioactive Peptides Mediate Selective Capture and Proliferation of Endothelial Colony‐Forming Cells

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A tunable bifunctional surface is developed by combining Fc‐binding peptides and RGD motifs to present oriented antibodies alongside integrin‐mediated signaling. The platform selectively captures endothelial colony‐forming cells while promoting their adhesion and proliferation.

Microfluidic Paper-Based Analytical Devices: from Pocket to Paper-Based Elisa

Bioanalysis, 2011
Microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (microPADs) began as a simple idea with an ambitious goal. The idea was to make microfluidic devices out of paper instead of plas tic or glass. The goal was to develop low-cost and portable paper-based diagnostic devices to improve healthcare in developing countries.

Nanotherapies for Atherosclerosis: Targeting, Catalysis, and Energy Transduction

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Atherosclerosis management is hindered by poor drug targeting and plaque heterogeneity. Nanotechnology overcomes these barriers via three core strategies: (1) target‐engineered nanocarriers that achieve lesion‐specific precision via ligand modification, biomimetic camouflage, stimuli‐responsive release, and self‐propelling nanomotors; (2) catalytic ...
