Acoustic actuation of fluids at small scales may finally enable a comprehensive lab-on-a-
chip revolution in microfluidics, overcoming long-standing difficulties in fluid and particle …

The realization of microscale total analysis systems and lab-on-a-chip technologies requires
efficient actuation (mixing, pumping, atomizing, nebulizing, driving, etc.) of fluids on the …

Surface acoustic waves (SAWs) are electro-mechanical waves that form on the surface of
piezoelectric crystals. Because they are easy to construct and operate, SAW devices have …

Acoustofluidics offers contact-free manipulation of particles and fluids, enabling their uses in
various life sciences, such as for biological and medical applications. Recently, there have …

In this study, we have investigated the motion of polystyrene microparticles inside a sessile
droplet of water actuated by surface acoustic waves (SAWs), which produce an acoustic …

Submicron separation is the segregation of particles having a diameter difference of less
than one micrometre. We present an acoustofluidic particle separator with submicron …

It has been 14 years since the inaugural microfluidics review in Analytical Chemistry was
published. 1 The first papers describing these devices which are also commonly referred to …

We present a numerical study of thermoviscous effects on the acoustic streaming flow
generated by an ultrasound standing-wave resonance in a long straight microfluidic channel …

Cell detachment is essential in culturing adherent cells. Trypsinization is the most popular
detachment technique, even though it reduces viability due to the damage to the membrane …

Biophysical markers of cells such as cellular electrical and mechanical properties have been
proven as promising label-free biomarkers for studying, characterizing, and classifying …
