Droplet-based microfluidics for artificial cell generation: a brief review.
Artificial cells are best defined as micrometre-sized structures able to mimic many of the morphological and functional characteristics of a living cell. In this mini-review, we describe progress in the application of droplet-based microfluidics for the generation of artificial cells and protocells.
متن کاملNumerical simulation of droplet-based microfluidics - A review
This paper discusses the features and applications of interface tracking techniques for modeling deroplet-based microfluidics. The paper reviews the state of the art of methods for tracking and capturing the interface. These methods are categorized as the implicit and the explicit methods. The implicit methods need to reconstruct the interface by reconnecting the markers on the interface. The i...
متن کاملDroplet Microfluidics for Chip-Based Diagnostics
Droplet microfluidics (DMF) is a fluidic handling technology that enables precision control over dispensing and subsequent manipulation of droplets in the volume range of microliters to picoliters, on a micro-fabricated device. There are several different droplet actuation methods, all of which can generate external stimuli, to either actively or passively control the shape and positioning of f...
متن کاملA droplet-based pH regulator in microfluidics.
In this paper, we develop a strategy to form on-demand droplets with specific pH values. The pH control is based on electrolysis of water in microfluidics, and the produced hydrogen and hydroxyl ions are separated and confined in individual containers during the droplet generation, triggered by a pressure pulse. By tuning the applied voltages and pressure pulses, we can control on demand the pH...
متن کاملAnalytical detection techniques for droplet microfluidics--a review.
In the last decade, droplet-based microfluidics has undergone rapid progress in the fields of single-cell analysis, digital PCR, protein crystallization and high throughput screening. It has been proved to be a promising platform for performing chemical and biological experiments with ultra-small volumes (picoliter to nanoliter) and ultra-high throughput. The ability to analyze the content in d...
