Particle Manipulation-on-chip: Using programmable hydrodynamic forcing in a closed loop

The precise manipulation of particles and droplets is crucial to many microfluidic applications in engineering. The design of microfluidic devices is generally tailored to perform a specific task, with each specific application requiring a unique and fixed design. In this way, using a single device to perform multiple analyses of a wide range of...

Particle Manipulation using Microfluidics

The progress made by microfabrication technologies has escalated the interest in particle manipulation on micron scale. Particles are not only limited to solid particles but also include cells, droplets and bubbles. Activities involved in manipulation are trapping, sorting, separation and so on. The devices designed to execute such activities...
