A Microfluidic Biomaterial

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2005
We report on the incorporation of microfluidic structure within a high-water-content hydrogel [4% (w/v) calcium alginate]. We used the microfluidic network to control the chemical environment within the hydrogel and demonstrated higher rates of delivery and extraction of solutes than was achievable by diffusion alone.

Magnetism and microfluidics

Lab Chip, 2006
Magnetic forces are now being utilised in an amazing variety of microfluidic applications. Magnetohydrodynamic flow has been applied to the pumping of fluids through microchannels. Magnetic materials such as ferrofluids or magnetically doped PDMS have been used as valves. Magnetic microparticles have been employed for mixing of fluid streams.

Cells in Microfluidics

2011
Microfluidic devices offer a realistic environment for cell cultures as it is related to scales found in biological systems. The aim is to create more in vivo like systems, in comparison to 2D plate cultures. Creating 3D cell culture constructs increase the cell's functionality.

Droplet microfluidics

Lab on a Chip, 2008
Droplet-based microfluidic systems have been shown to be compatible with many chemical and biological reagents and capable of performing a variety of "digital fluidic" operations that can be rendered programmable and reconfigurable. This platform has dimensional scaling benefits that have enabled controlled and rapid mixing of fluids in the droplet ...

Microfluidic Technologies

2012
Presence of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in blood is an important intermediate step in cancer metastasis, a mortal consequence of cancer. However, CTCs are extremely rare in blood with highly heterogeneous morphologies and molecular signatures, thus making their isolation technically very challenging.

Fourier microfluidics

Lab on a Chip, 2008
We present a new experimental technique for the separation of dynamic chemical signals based on their frequency domain characteristics. Such a technique can be used to create filters that separate slow signals from fast signals from a common input flow stream.

Thermoosmotic microfluidics

Soft Matter, 2016
Microchannels with asymmetrically ratcheted walls are here shown to behave as effective and versatile microfluidic pumps if locally heated. When the boundary walls have different temperatures, the confined liquid experiences a temperature gradient along the sawtooth edges, which can induce a thermoosmotic flow. A mesoscale molecular simulation approach
