Cancer cells shed into biofluids extracellular vesicles (EVs)—nanoscale membrane particles
carrying diagnostic information. EVs shed by heterogeneous populations of tumor cells offer …

Homogeneous and rapid mixing in microfluidic devices is difficult to accomplish, owing to
the low Reynolds number associated with most flows in microfluidic channels. Here, an …

We introduce herein an efficient microfluidic approach for continuous transport and localized
collection of nanoparticles via hybrid electrokinetics, which delicately combines linear and …

Viscoelastic solution is encountered extensively in microfluidics. In this work, the particle
movement of the viscoelastic flow in the contraction–expansion channel is demonstrated …

The translational motion of small particles in an electrokinetic fluid flow through a
constriction can be enhanced by an increase of the applied electric potential. Beyond a …

We report an effective, easy-to-use, computational fluid dynamics-based optimization
method for designing purely resistive microfluidic networks with desired flow rates at user …

This paper develops a numerical simulation model to research the deformable particle‐
particle interactions caused by dielectrophoresis (DEP) under AC electric fields. The DEP …

A novel microfluidic load sensor based on electrokinetic mechanism is developed. Its
measuring principle is revealed, and the effects of the geometry and other physical …

The dielectrophoretic (DEP) choking phenomenon is revisited for Janus particles that are
transported electrokinetically through a microchannel constriction by a direct‐current (DC) …

This work mainly studies the mixing efficiency and mixing energy cost (MEC) of the tree-
shaped obstacle micromixer based on fractal principle and Murray's law. The obstacles are …
