Blood tests are considered as standard clinical procedures to screen for markers of diseases
and health conditions. However, the complex cellular background (> 99.9% RBCs) and …

This review describes the current knowledge and applications of pulsatile flow in microfluidic
systems. Elements of fluid dynamics at low Reynolds number are first described in the …

Flow cytometry nowadays is among the main working instruments in modern biology paving
the way for clinics to provide early, quick, and reliable diagnostics of many blood-related …

Clogging is a common obstacle encountered during the transport of suspensions and
represents a significant energy and material cost across applications, including water …

Early fluid mixing in channel flows without incurring much drop in the pressure head is
desired in industrial applications. This study explores wall-mounted flexible plates as …

An acoustofluidic trap is used for accurate 3D cell proliferation and cell function analysis in
levitation. The prototype trap can be integrated with any microscope setup, allowing …

Red blood cells (RBCs) are more deformable than most other cells in the body, and any
change in the deformability of RBCs can have major physiological effects. Here, we report a …

We report a high-throughput microfluidic device to determine the Young's modulus of single
red blood cells (RBCs). Our device consists of a single channel opening into a funnel, with a …

We report a microfluidic device to determine the shear elastic modulus and the Young's
modulus of red blood cells (RBCs). Our device consists of a single channel opening into a …

Suspensions, whether natural or engineered, are encountered in nearly all physical systems
involving flow. For various reasons, they are crucially important in manufacturing, water …
