Reconfigurable microfluidics: real-time shaping of virtual channels through hydrodynamic forces

To break the current paradigm in microfluidics that directly links device design to functionality, we introduce microfluidic "virtual channels" that can be dynamically shaped in real-time. A virtual channel refers to a flow path within a microfluidic flow ...

Modeling, Simulation, and Performance Evaluation of a Novel Microfluidic Impedance Cytometer for Morphology-Based Cell Discrimination

Philippe Renaud, Ludovica Colella, Marjan Shaker

The performance of a novel microfluidic impedance cytometer [1] for single-cell analysis is investigated in-silico by means of a finite element model. The main feature of the device is the ability to probe impedance of flowing cells along two orthogonal di ...
