چکیده
Inkjet 3D printing is with success used for preparation microfluidics devices as a microfluidic chips for DNA separation. Utilized this technic help us to prepare a chip in shorter time and cheaper, but length of microchannel are limited by possibility of support material removing. One of the Solution for solve this limitations is divide a microfluidics chips for modules and printing them separately. I this paper we present a modular configurable system for gel electrophoresis. Results of carrying methylene-blue from first module to second module are showed. New methodology for electrophoresis is show.

Inkjet printing of UV-curable adhesive and dielectric inks for microfluidic devices.
Bonding of polymer-based microfluidics to polymer substrates still poses a challenge for Lab-On-a-Chip applications. Especially, when sensing elements are incorporated, patterned deposition of adhesives with curing at ambient conditions is required. Here, we demonstrate a fabrication method for fully printed microfluidic systems with sensing elements using inkjet and stereolithographic 3D-print...

This paper demonstrates a novel and low-cost additive manufacturing process for flexible and disposable microfluidics on virtually any substrate, with which the first “all-inkjet-printed” microfluidic microwave sensor is prototyped. A 30-μm-high 600-μm-wide SU-8 (polymer) 3-D microfluidic channel and an electromagnetic sensing setting are fabricated with sole reliance on multilayer inkjet-print...

By combining microfluidics and soft-lithographic molding of gels containing mammalian cells, a device for three-dimensional (3D) culture of mammalian cells in microchannels was developed. Native components of the extracellular matrix, including collagen or Matrigel, made up the matrix of each molded piece (module) of cell-containing gel. Each module had at least one dimension below approximatel...

Polyacrylamide (PA) based hydrogels are used in several applications including polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and sensing devices. Homogeneous and compact PA films can be prepared based on chemical or photopolymerization processes. However, the accurate and reproducible coating of substrates with nanohydrogel patterns is challenging due to the in situ polymerization and deposition requireme...

In this study a novel method of simultaneous gene transfection and cell delivery based on inkjet printing technology is described. Plasmids encoding green fluorescent protein (GFP) were co-printed with living cells (porcine aortic endothelial (PAE) cells) through the ink cartridge nozzles of modified commercial inkjet printers. Agaorse gel electrophoresis analysis showed there was no obvious st...
