Microfluidic diagnostic devices have the potential to transform the practice of medicine. We engineered a multiplexed digital-analog microfluidic platform for the rapid and highly sensitive detection of 3-4 biomarkers in quadruplicate in 16 independent and ...
The development of microfluidics has led to significant improvements in many areas of in vitro diagnostics. This thesis proposes the use of microfluidic device technology in the field of anatomic pathology, leading to faster and more accurate tissue-based ...
Encapsulation of islets of Langerhans may represent a way to transplant islets in the absence of immunosuppression. Traditional methods for encapsulation lead to diffusional limitations imposed by the size of the capsules (600-1,000 m in diameter), which r ...
This communication presents a novel and solvent-free method to synthesise Mg(B3H8)(2) via the gas-solid reaction between B2H6 and Mg2NiH4, which overcomes the limitations of wet chemical methods requiring solvent removal. ...
We present an easy, durable method to generate a partially hydrophilic/hydrophobic poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) microfluidic device. The functionality of this device was assessed in a double flow focusing design to fabricate core–shell structured poly(lac ...
Our demo demonstrates the method we published at CVPR this year for tracking specular and poorly textured objects, and lets the visitors experiment with it and with their own patterns. Our approach only requires a standard monocular camera (no need for a d ...
An optimization based algorithm is proposed for solving elliptic problems with highly oscillatory coecients that do not exhibit scale separation in a subregion of the physical domain. The given method, written as a constrained minimization problem couples ...
A composition comprising a first material and a second material, wherein said first material is cross-linkable by a first cross- linking reaction and said second material is cross-linkable by a second cross-linking reaction, wherein said first cross-linkin ...
Guided by extensive numerical simulations, we propose a microfluidic device that can sort elastic capsules by their deformability. The device consists of a duct embedded with a semi-cylindrical obstacle, and a diffuser which further enhances the sorting ca ...
We present a microfluidic device that enables high throughput production of relatively monodisperse emulsion drops while controlling the average size. The device consists of a two-dimensional array of regularly-spaced posts. Large drops of a highly polydis ...
