Editorial: A note from the new Co-Editor.

In an emerging field with so many prominent researchers, I am tremendously humbled to have been appointed as Co-Editor of Biomicrofluidics alongside Professor Hsueh-Chia Chang, who has done such a terrific job in leading the journal since its inception in 2007. It is, therefore, with great honor that I assume this editorial responsibility, having had the privilege of serving the journal first a...

Editorial: A new year and a new Associate Editor.

Biomicrofluidics continued to experience another year of growth in 2010, both in terms of the number of papers published and, more importantly, their quality. We are particularly encouraged by the strong jump in the journal’s impact factor from 2.318 in 2008 to 2.895 in 2009, and are working hard to maintain a steady upward trend. There is no doubt in our minds that this is largely due to the c...

Microfluidic 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...
