High‐Yield Bioproduction of Extracellular Vesicles from Stem Cell Spheroids via Millifluidic Vortex Transport

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Stem cell spheroids, produced via a high‐throughput microfabrication technique, are transported within a vortex generated at the outlet channels of a cross‐slot millifluidic chip. For Reynolds number exceeding 170–200, intermittent high shear stresses applied to each spheroid within the vortex trigger a massive release of biologically active ...

Reproductive biology and induced sterility as determinants for genetic control of mosquitoes with the Sterile Insect Technique

open access: yes
Malaria remains an important health issue in sub-Saharan Africa, and new methods to reduce the disease are needed. In this thesis, the use of the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) against the African malaria vector Anopheles arabiensis was explored. The SIT relies on the releases of large numbers of sterilised males. If the sterile males are successful in

Structured Light Projection Using Image Guide Fibers for In Situ Photo‐biofabrication

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Light‐based biofabrication is typically performed with single wavelength light sources and within benchtop devices. This work demonstrates FaSt‐Light (Fiber‐assisted Structured Light) as a new approach to achieve multiwavelength image projection using flexible image guide fibers, which enables a variety of applications for in situ biofabrication ...
