Nathan Blow reports. The field of microfluidics is now at a point where the search is on for a 'killer application'—or a 'killer app' as computer people would say. Over the past ten years ...

This is particularly valuable for large-scale dataset generation, which is key to advancing computer-aided design (CAD) tools ...

If you want to get started in microfluidic robotics, [soiboi soft’s] salamander is probably too complex for a first project.

2 This design integrated these microvalves onto a bilayer PDMS microfluidic chip. Liquid flowed through the bottom channel, while the upper channel sat perpendicular to it. When activated under ...

This approach is particularly useful for generating large datasets, which are essential for improving computer-aided design ...

The new microfluidic device uses a large number of tiny channels, about the width of a human hair, designed to quickly and efficiently separate blood cells by size in a process called controlled ...

Microfluidics (also called 'lab-on-chip') has been touted as a means to miniaturize biology and chemistry on tiny, hand-held devices (see picture). There are numerous advantages with microfluidics ...

Introduction to Microfluidics Technology is a hands-on laboratory course sponsored by the National Science Foundation’s Bioinspired Soft Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (MRSEC) at ...

With microfluidics, the researchers found that the higher the rate of fluid flow, the more effective the same dose of antibiotic was at killing bacteria. Credit: Graphic by Alexander Shuppara ...
