Microfluidics technology for manipulation and analysis of biological cells
Analysis of the profiles and dynamics of molecular components and sub-cellular structures in living cells using microfluidic devices has become a major branch of bioanalytical chemistry during the past decades. Microfluidic systems have shown unique advantages in performing analytical functions such as controlled transportation, immobilization, and manipulation of biological molecules and cells...
متن کاملDigital microfluidics.
Digital microfluidics (DMF) is an emerging liquid-handling technology that enables individual control over droplets on an open array of electrodes. These picoliter- to microliter-sized droplets, each serving as an isolated vessel for chemical processes, can be made to move, merge, split, and dispense from reservoirs. Because of its unique advantages, including simple instrumentation, flexible d...
متن کاملDielectrophoresis in microfluidics technology.
Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is the movement of a particle in a non-uniform electric field due to the interaction of the particle's dipole and spatial gradient of the electric field. DEP is a subtle solution to manipulate particles and cells at microscale due to its favorable scaling for the reduced size of the system. DEP has been utilized for many applications in microfluidic systems. In this revi...
متن کاملOpen-Surface Digital Microfluidics
Open-surface digital microfluidics refers to droplet manipulations in an open surface. Different chemical/biological reaction protocols can easily be demonstrated in the same device by reprogramming the order of droplet manipulations. While continuous-flow or liquid-plug microfluidics within microchannels have inherently limited programmability, there is no limit of reprogrammability in open-su...
متن کاملMachine vision for digital microfluidics.
Machine vision is widely used in an industrial environment today. It can perform various tasks, such as inspecting and controlling production processes, that may require humanlike intelligence. The importance of imaging technology for biological research or medical diagnosis is greater than ever. For example, fluorescent reporter imaging enables scientists to study the dynamics of gene networks...
