We report on miniature dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) operating in zipping mode with an analytical model that predicts their behavior. Electrostatic zipping is a well-known mechanism in silicon MEMS to obtain large deformations and forces at lower v ...
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 ...
On-site drug testing using easily accessible body fluids, such as saliva, has gained a lot of importance both for road safety and forensic applications. However, saliva is a complex, inhomogeneous amalgam with many different compounds, whose concentrations ...
Here, we demonstrate a new approach for the synthesis of ion exchange microfibers with finely tuned anhydrous conductivity. This work presents microfluidics as a system to control the size and phosphoric acid (PA) doping level of the polybenzimidazole (PBI ...
Clinical point of care testing often needs plasma instead of whole blood. As centrifugation is labor intensive and not always accessible, filtration is a more appropriate separation technique. The complexity of whole blood is such that there is still no co ...
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 ...
A microfluidic method to synthesize gold–titania nanocomposites is presented. Porous TiO2 particles are first loaded with a reducing agent and then suspended in water and mixed with chloroauric acid (HAuCl4) in a droplet-by-droplet manner on a microfluidic ...
The present invention generally relates to microfluidics and, in particular, to systems and methods of producing droplets (55), including double and other multiple emulsion droplets (55). In some embodiments, the present invention is generally directed to ...
The research areas of tissue engineering and drug development have displayed increased interest in organ-on-a-chip studies, in which physiologically or pathologically relevant tissues can be engineered to test pharmaceutical candidates. Microfluidic techno ...
Pressure lies at the basis of operation of most microfluidic systems, and is a determinant factor in the extent of miniaturization and in limiting the throughput and time constant of the microfluidic assays. Despite the apparent importance given to fluidic ...
