Paper-Based Bi-Material Cantilever Actuator Bending Behavior and Modeling

Micromachines, 2023
In this paper, the behavior of the Bi-Material Cantilever (B-MaC) response deflection upon fluidic loading was experimentally studied and modeled for bilayer strips. A B-MaC consists of a strip of paper adhered to a strip of tape.

Spatial Manipulation with Microfluidics [PDF]

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2015
Biochemical gradients convey information through space, time, and concentration, and are ultimately capable of spatially resolving distinct cellular phenotypes, such as differentiation, proliferation, and migration. How these gradients develop, evolve, and function during development, homeostasis, and various disease states is a subject of intense ...

Culture of pluripotent stem cells in microscale droplets modulates differentiation and tissue patterning towards organoids on chip

Stem Cell Research & Therapy
Background The differentiation of pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) and their self-organization into organoids are influenced by cell-cell interactions mediated by contacts and secreted molecules.

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.

Using a Supramolecular Approach to Engineer Modular Hydrogel Platforms for Culturing Protoplasts – from General Tissue Engineering to Cellular Agriculture

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
Using supramolecular monomers, various hydrogel culture systems were formulated to culture protoplasts; including 2D, 2.5D, and 3D hydrogels. Depending on the culture platform, bioactive functionalization led to protoplast enlargement (2D and 2.5D) or plasmolysis (3D). This work shows the potential to modularly engineer synthetic platforms for cellular

Bioprocess microfluidics: applying microfluidic devices for bioprocessing

Current Opinion in Chemical Engineering, 2017
Scale-down approaches have long been applied in bioprocessing to resolve scale-up problems. Miniaturized bioreactors have thrived as a tool to obtain process relevant data during early-stage process development. Microfluidic devices are an attractive alternative in bioprocessing development due to the high degree of control over process variables ...
