Microfluidic Networks for Studying Thrombosis
The flux of platelet agonists into flowing blood is a critical event in thrombosis and hemostasis. However, few in vitro methods exist for examining and controlling the role of platelet agonists on clot formation and stability under hemodynamic conditions. In this project, we fabricated a membrane-based method for introducing a solute into flowing blood at a defined flux [1]. The device consist...
متن کاملMicrofluidic devices for studying chemotaxis and electrotaxis.
Directed cell migration plays important roles in physiological processes such as host defense, wound healing, cancer metastasis and embryogenesis. Many organisms are capable of directional migration, which can be guided by diverse cellular factors including chemical and electrical cues. Recently, microfluidic devices that consist of small channels with micrometer dimensions are being developed ...
متن کاملMicrofluidic Mixers for Studying Protein Folding
The process by which a protein folds into its native conformation is highly relevant to biology and human health yet still poorly understood. One reason for this is that folding takes place over a wide range of timescales, from nanoseconds to seconds or longer, depending on the protein. Conventional stopped-flow mixers have allowed measurement of folding kinetics starting at about 1 ms. We have...
متن کاملStudying Electrotaxis in Microfluidic Devices
Collective cell migration is important in various physiological processes such as morphogenesis, cancer metastasis and cell regeneration. Such migration can be induced and guided by different chemical and physical cues. Electrotaxis, referring to the directional migration of adherent cells under stimulus of electric fields, is believed to be highly involved in the wound-healing process. Electro...
متن کاملchannel estimation for mimo-ofdm systems
تخمین دقیق مشخصات کانال در سیستم های مخابراتی یک امر مهم محسوب می گردد. این امر به ویژه در کانال های بیسیم با خاصیت فرکانس گزینی و زمان گزینی شدید، چالش بزرگی است. مقالات متعدد پر از روش های مبتکرانه ای برای طراحی و آنالیز الگوریتم های تخمین کانال است که بیشتر آنها از روش های خاصی استفاده می کنند که یا دارای عملکرد خوب با پیچیدگی محاسباتی بالا هستند و یا با عملکرد نه چندان خوب پیچیدگی پایینی...
