Extremely sensitive protein detection is crucial for early diagnosis and monitoring of diseases. Present day’s limit of detection for an antibody-antigen recognition-based immunoassay in serum without having to use special target antigen amplification tech ...
The term of optofluidics defines an emergent research field that combines microfluidics and optics. In many lab-on-a-chip applications, these two technologies are used in combining the microfluidics for sample delivery and optics for sensing and controllin ...
We present a new method for three-dimensional (3D) magnetic focusing of magnetic microparticles in a microfluidic system. On-chip magnetic particle manipulation in themicrochannel is achieved by a high-gradientmagnetic field generated by means of a microma ...
We present a novel optofluidic differential method for carrying out absorbance spectroscopy of subnanolitre volumes of liquid samples on a microfluidic chip. Due to the reduction of liquid volume, the absorbance detection in microfluidics is often hindered ...
Separation of functional magnetic particles or magnetically labeled entities is a key feature for bioanalytical or biomedical applications and therefore also an important component of lab-on-a-chip devices for biological applications. We present a novel in ...
Functional magnetic micro- and nanoparticles are used in bioanalytical applications as solid carriers for capture, transport and detection of biomolecules or magnetically labeled cells. Colloidal suspensions of such particles provide a large specific surfa ...
Contamination with arsenic is a recurring problem in both industrialized and developing countries. Drinking water supplies for large populations can have concentrations much higher than the permissible levels (for most European countries and the United Sta ...
Research on microfluidic devices for biological analysis has progressed sufficiently to be developed into point-of-care diagnostics products. The goal of this thesis is to improve multiple aspects of capillary-driven microfluidic devices. In particular, th ...
Separation of functional magnetic particles or magnetically labeled entities is a key feature for bioanalytical or biomedical applications and therefore also an important component of lab-on-a-chip devices for biological applications. We present a novel in ...
The physiological properties of cells are typically investigated in ensembles yielding averaged data that mask heterogeneities present in any cell population. Single-cell analysis techniques based on microfluidic "lab on a chip" (LOC) devices have recently ...
