Malaria detection using inertial microfluidics.
Diagnosis of malaria at the early stage of infection is challenging due to the difficulty in detecting low abundance parasites from blood. Molecular methods such as real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) can be especially useful for detecting low parasitemia levels due to their high sensitivity and their ability to recognize different malarial species and strains. Unfortunately, the accurac...
متن کاملDigital microfluidics using soft lithography.
Although microfluidic chips have demonstrated basic functionality for single applications, performing varied and complex experiments on a single device is still technically challenging. While many groups have implemented control software to drive the pumps, valves, and electrodes used to manipulate fluids in microfluidic devices, a new level of programmability is needed for end users to orchest...
متن کاملCancer-cell microsurgery using nonlinear optical endomicroscopy.
Near-infrared laser-based microsurgery is promising for noninvasive cancer treatment. To make it a safe technique, a therapeutic process should be controllable and energy efficient, which requires the cancer cells to be identifiable and observable. In this work, for the first time we use a miniaturized nonlinear optical endomicroscope to achieve microtreatment of cancer cells labeled with gold ...
متن کاملMembrane-less microfiltration using inertial microfluidics
Microfiltration is a ubiquitous and often crucial part of many industrial processes, including biopharmaceutical manufacturing. Yet, all existing filtration systems suffer from the issue of membrane clogging, which fundamentally limits the efficiency and reliability of the filtration process. Herein, we report the development of a membrane-less microfiltration system by massively parallelizing ...
متن کاملMechanically activated artificial cell by using microfluidics
All living organisms sense mechanical forces. Engineering mechanosensitive artificial cell through bottom-up in vitro reconstitution offers a way to understand how mixtures of macromolecules assemble and organize into a complex system that responds to forces. We use stable double emulsion droplets (aqueous/oil/aqueous) to prototype mechanosensitive artificial cells. In order to demonstrate mech...
