Continuous-flow microfluidic blood cell sorting for unprocessed whole blood using surface-micromachined microfiltration membranes.
White blood cells (WBCs) constitute about 0.1% of the blood cells, yet they play a critical role in innate and adaptive immune responses against pathogenic infections, allergic conditions, and malignancies and thus contain rich information about the immune status of the body. Rapid isolation of WBCs directly from whole blood is a prerequisite for any integrated immunoassay platform designed for...
متن کاملMicrofiltration of deformable microgels.
Understanding the separation, concentration and purification processes of soft nanoparticles is essential for numerous applications in water filtration, bioprocessing and blood separation. Here we report unique translocation and rejection features of sub-micron sized microgels during frontal filtration using membranes having micron-sized porosity. Simultaneously measuring the increase in hydrau...
متن کاملMicrofiltration Device for Continuous, Label-free Bacteria Separation from Whole Blood for Sepsis Treatment
This work presents the design, fabrication, and testing of a cross-flow filtration microdevice, for the continuous extraction of bacteria from a whole blood sample for the treatment of sepsis and bacteremia. The system consists of a two-compartment microdevice with two aligned sets of PDMS microchannels, separated by a porous polycarbonate (PCTE) membrane with 2 m pores. When a whole blood sam...
متن کاملThe role of forward osmosis and microfiltration in an integrated osmotic-microfiltration membrane bioreactor system.
This study investigates the performance of an integrated osmotic and microfiltration membrane bioreactor (O/MF-MBR) system for wastewater treatment and reclamation. The O/MF-MBR system simultaneously used microfiltration (MF) and forward osmosis (FO) membranes to extract water from the mixed liquor of an aerobic bioreactor. The MF membrane facilitated the bleeding of dissolved inorganic salts a...
متن کاملScreening cell mechanotype by parallel microfiltration
Cell mechanical phenotype or 'mechanotype' is emerging as a valuable label-free biomarker. For example, marked changes in the viscoelastic characteristics of cells occur during malignant transformation and cancer progression. Here we describe a simple and scalable technique to measure cell mechanotype: this parallel microfiltration assay enables multiple samples to be simultaneously measured by...
