Large-volume centrifugal microfluidic device for blood plasma separation.
BACKGROUND Microfluidic-based systems are ideal for handling small microliter volumes of samples and reagents, but 'real-world' or clinical samples for bioanalysis are often on the milliliter scale. We aimed to develop and validate a large-volume centrifugal or compact disc-based device for blood plasma separation, capable of processing 2 ml undiluted blood samples. RESULTS This automated blo...
متن کاملMicrofluidic blood plasma separation via bulk electrohydrodynamic flows.
An effective mechanism for rapid and efficient microfluidic particle trapping and concentration is proposed without requiring any mechanically moving parts. When a voltage beyond the threshold atmospheric ionization value is applied on a sharp electrode tip mounted at an angle above a microfluidic liquid chamber, the bulk electrohydrodynamic air thrust that is generated results in interfacial s...
متن کاملDesign of pressure-driven microfluidic networks using electric circuit analogy.
This article reviews the application of electric circuit methods for the analysis of pressure-driven microfluidic networks with an emphasis on concentration- and flow-dependent systems. The application of circuit methods to microfluidics is based on the analogous behaviour of hydraulic and electric circuits with correlations of pressure to voltage, volumetric flow rate to current, and hydraulic...
متن کاملfrom linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar
chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...
15 صفحه اولBlood-plasma separation in Y-shaped bifurcating microfluidic channels: a dissipative particle dynamics simulation study.
The motion of a suspension of red blood cells (RBCs) flowing in a Y-shaped bifurcating microfluidic channel is investigated using a validated low-dimensional RBC model based on dissipative particle dynamics. Specifically, the RBC is represented as a closed torus-like ring of ten colloidal particles, which leads to efficient simulations of blood flow in microcirculation over a wide range of hema...
