Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Since the introduction of the of Micro Total Analysis Systems concept in 1990, important progress in microfluidic analytical systems has been realized. In many cases, microfluidic systems have shown improved analytical performances over classical methods, ...
We have fabricated a microfluidic device based on a novel geometrical arrangement of lateral metal electrodes and a patterned insulator. Our device combines the concept of insulator-based “electrodeless” dielectrophoresis with multiple frequencies to achie ...
We use microfluidic devices to encapsulate, incubate, and manipulate individual cells in picoliter aqueous drops in a carrier fluid at rates of up to several hundred Hz. We use a modular approach with individual devices for each function, thereby significa ...
The main aim of this project was to develop novel concepts for miniaturization of bioanalytical techniques for investigating biomolecular interactions. We used optical tweezers to selectively address individual biological objects in microfluidic channels. ...
[...] Studying axon guidance by diffusible or substrate bound gradients is challenging with current techniques. In this study, we present two microfluidic devices to study axon guidance. [... click on "Download fulltext" for full abstract] ...
This thesis reports on the integration of continuous-flow cell separation method for lab-on-a-chip applications. Cell separation methods are widely used in biology to prepare samples prior to analysis. There is a need for a highly sensitive separation meth ...
[...] During this project, the fusion feasibility of chips produced for other applications have been tested and some critical fusion parameters have been defined. Then, with the help of FEM simulations, a new chip design has been proposed to overcome the p ...
We present a 3-D microfluidic device designed for localized drug delivery to cellular networks. The device features a flow cell comprising a main channel for nutrient delivery as well as multiple channels for drug delivery. This device is one key component ...
This paper reports on a novel method for on-chip continuous separation of divid- ing and non-dividing cells based on differences in their dielectric properties. By means of two opposite dielectrophoretic force fields at multiple frequencies, the two popula ...
This paper reports on a new microfluidic chip designed for cell electrofusion. A pair of cells is brought into close contact by means of opposite dielectrophoretic forces and they are subsequently fused by applying a short electrical pulse. ...
