In-vitro 3D organoid cultures constitute an essential component of modern-day biological research, with key application areas in drug and therapy testing, and Organ-on-a-Chip models. The increasing demand for reliable models comes with the challenge of boosting the throughput of production of these cultures. The currently researched 3D culture methods pose the challenge of not being contact-free, of limited versatility and throughput in organoid culturing, and often lack a stimulus to promote cell agglomeration. This work presents acoustofluidics as a stimulus-driven solution to promote the clustering of cells in a levitated, suspended environment. In order to establish this objective experimentally, an SBAW resonator was designed, fabricated, and tested as a PoC (Proof-of-Concept). The experiments were carried out with the fabricated PoC which was characterized to assess the trapping performance and determine the controllable experimental variables to tune the acoustofluidic effects aptly, leading to the formation of stable clusters in SBAW nodal planes. On successful fabrication, the device showed repeatable trapping over a wide bandwidth of 300 kHz, and trap stiffnesses of up to 1.7 fN/μm determined experimentally based on the processing of particle agglomerate imaging. It was observed that the trap stiffness was adequate for levitation over several hours, and yet allowed for the formation of a 3D agglomerate of particles. It was also shown that a frequency-sweep actuation was successful in overcoming fabrication limitations and suppressing streaming, and a suitable working range of experimental parameters could be determined to achieve initial clustering in under 3 minutes. A futuristic outlook on the in-plane particle confinement methods to further improve the target performance, and considerations for biological experiments as the immediate next step have been presented as a concluding note in this thesis. This work thus paves the way for the integration of this technique into laboratory organoid culture formats. This positively complements the objective of cutting down the agglomeration time for initial organoid clustering, for an anticipated positive impact on the production throughput and developmental aspects of organoid cultures, with the in-house fabricated and characterized PoC presented in this work as an enabler.
