A Novel Implantable Glaucoma Valve Using Ferrofluid
PURPOSE To present a novel design of an implantable glaucoma valve based on ferrofluidic nanoparticles and to compare it with a well-established FDA approved valve. SETTING Massachusetts Eye & Ear Infirmary, Boston, USA. METHODS A glaucoma valve was designed using soft lithography techniques utilizing a water-immiscible magnetic fluid (ferrofluid) as a pressure-sensitive barrier to aqueous ...
متن کاملFerrofluid-based microchip pump and valve
Fluid control is a key element in the performance of microfluidic “lab-on-a-chip” devices. The development of integrated multi-function micro-chemical reactors and analysis platforms depends upon on-chip valving and pumping. In this work, microfluidic valves and pumps were fabricated from etched glass substrates each bonded to a second glass substrate lid that had ultrasonically drilled access ...
متن کاملUsing Ahmed’s Gonioimplant Valve to Surgical Treatment of Glaucoma in Two Dogs
Case Description- An eleven-year-old Golden retriever male dog (dog I) and a four-year-old neutered Toy Terrier (dog II) were referred to Small Animal Clinic. Dog I was suffered from partial loss of vision and engorgement of episcleral vessels of his right eye and dog II was blind. Intraocular pressure (IOP) of right eye was 37.8 mmHg in dog I and 34.5 and 31.6 mmHg in the right and left...
متن کاملA Rapid Magnetofluidic Micromixer Using Diluted Ferrofluid
Abstract: Effective and rapid mixing is essential for various chemical and biological assays. The present work reports a simple and low-cost micromixer based on magnetofluidic actuation. The device takes advantage of magnetoconvective secondary flow, a bulk flow induced by an external magnetic field, for mixing. A paramagnetic stream of diluted ferrofluid and a non-magnetic stream are introduce...
متن کاملA microfluidic chaotic mixer using ferrofluid
A novel micromixer which utilizes chaotic mixing induced by ferrofluid actuation is developed. The micromixer is fabricated by a polydimethylsiloxane micromolding technique. The micromixer consists of a T-shaped main mixing channel and two parallel sub-channels that intersect the main channel. Oscillation of a couple of ferrofluid slugs in the sub-channels, induced by external permanent magnet ...
