Droplet-Generating Microfluidic Devices for Soluble Assays
ogy in the pharmaceutical industry (1). Over the past decade, there has been a logarithmic increase in the industry’s ability to screen large combinatorial libraries of compounds against target molecules (2). The technology to achieve this has come in the form of robotics, high-density microplates, small volume (microliter) liquid handling, and sophisticated detection schemes. Signifi cant effo...
متن کاملDroplet-interface-bilayer assays in microfluidic passive networks
Basic biophysical studies and pharmacological processes can be investigated by mimicking the intracellular and extracellular environments across an artificial cell membrane construct. The ability to reproduce in vitro simplified scenarios found in live cell membranes in an automated manner has great potential for a variety of synthetic biology and compound screening applications. Here, we prese...
متن کاملMicrofluidic EDGE emulsification: the importance of interface interactions on droplet formation and pressure stability
The fact that interactions of components with interfaces can influence processes is well-known; e.g. deposit accumulation on heat exchangers and membrane fouling lead to additional resistances against heat and mass transfer, respectively. In microfluidic emulsification, the situation is even more complex. Component accumulation at the liquid/liquid interface is necessary for emulsion stability,...
متن کاملVacuum-assisted cell loading enables shear-free mammalian microfluidic culture.
Microfluidic perfusion cultures for mammalian cells provide a novel means for probing single-cell behavior but require the management of culture parameters such as flow-induced shear stress. Methods to eliminate shear stress generally focus on capturing cells in regions with high resistance to fluid flow. Here, we present a novel trapping design to easily and reliably load a high density of cel...
متن کاملField-free particle focusing in microfluidic plugs.
Particle concentration is a key unit operation in biochemical assays. Although there are many techniques for particle concentration in continuous-phase microfluidics, relatively few are available in multiphase (plug-based) microfluidics. Existing approaches generally require external electric or magnetic fields together with charged or magnetized particles. This paper reports a passive techniqu...
