Inertial microfluidics for continuous particle separation in spiral microchannels.
In this work we report on a simple inertial microfluidic device that achieves continuous multi-particle separation using the principle of Dean-coupled inertial migration in spiral microchannels. The dominant inertial forces coupled with the Dean rotational force due to the curvilinear microchannel geometry cause particles to occupy a single equilibrium position near the inner microchannel wall....
متن کاملDynamics analysis of microparticles in inertial microfluidics for biomedical applications
Inertial microfluidics-based devices have recently attracted much interest and attention due to their simple structure, high throughput, fast processing and low cost. They have been utilised in a wide range of applications in microtechnology, especially for sorting and separating microparticles. This novel class of microfluidics-based devices works based on intrinsic forces, which cause micropa...
متن کاملInertial Microfluidics for Multiplexed Affinity Separation of Proteins and Cells
We present an inertial microfluidic platform for rapid, multiplexed affinity purification of proteins and cells from complex mixtures. Beads of different sizes, coated with different bait molecules bind specific proteins or cells in a single reaction step and the bound targets are then size-sorted by flowing in a spiral microchannel. We use this scheme to simultaneously purify antibodies specif...
متن کاملFeedback control of inertial microfluidics using axial control forces.
Inertial microfluidics is a promising tool for many lab-on-a-chip applications. Particles in channel flows with Reynolds numbers above one undergo cross-streamline migration to a discrete set of equilibrium positions in square and rectangular channel cross sections. This effect has been used extensively for particle sorting and the analysis of particle properties. Using the lattice Boltzmann me...
متن کاملMalaria detection using inertial microfluidics.
Diagnosis of malaria at the early stage of infection is challenging due to the difficulty in detecting low abundance parasites from blood. Molecular methods such as real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) can be especially useful for detecting low parasitemia levels due to their high sensitivity and their ability to recognize different malarial species and strains. Unfortunately, the accurac...
