Acoustofluidics 12: Biocompatibility and cell viability in microfluidic acoustic resonators.

Acoustofluidics 2: perturbation theory and ultrasound resonance modes.

In the second part of the thematic tutorial series "Acoustofluidics--exploiting ultrasonic standing waves forces and acoustic streaming in microfluidic systems for cell and particle manipulation", we develop the perturbation theory of the acoustic field in fluids and apply the result in a study of acoustic resonance modes in microfluidic channels.

Acoustofluidics 14: Applications of acoustic streaming in microfluidic devices.

In part 14 of the tutorial series "Acoustofluidics--exploiting ultrasonic standing wave forces and acoustic streaming in microfluidic systems for cell and particle manipulation", we provide a qualitative description of acoustic streaming and review its applications in lab-on-a-chip devices. The paper covers boundary layer driven streaming, including Schlichting and Rayleigh streaming, Eckart st...

Forthcoming Lab on a Chip tutorial series on acoustofluidics: acoustofluidics-exploiting ultrasonic standing wave forces and acoustic streaming in microfluidic systems for cell and particle manipulation.

Acoustofluidics 7: The acoustic radiation force on small particles.

In this paper, Part 7 of the thematic tutorial series "Acoustofluidics-exploiting ultrasonic standing waves, forces and acoustic streaming in microfluidic systems for cell and particle manipulation", we present the theory of the acoustic radiation force; a second-order, time-averaged effect responsible for the acoustophoretic motion of suspended, micrometre-sized particles in an ultrasound field.

Acoustofluidics 10: scaling laws in acoustophoresis.

In Part 10 of the thematic tutorial series "Acoustofluidics-exploiting ultrasonic standing waves forces and acoustic streaming in microfluidic systems for cell and particle manipulation", we present and analyze a number of scaling laws relevant for microsystem acoustophoresis. Such laws are useful both in understanding, designing, and analyzing acoustofluidic devices.
