Platelet-enriched plasma and red blood cells (RBC) are needed in the treatment of blood-related diseases, including anaemia and blood cancer. These essential components must be separated from blood in well-designed experimental setups. If…
This paper presents a microfluidic device for magnetophoretic separation red blood cells from blood under contionous flow. The separation method consist of continous flow of a blood sample (diluted in PBS) through a microfluidic channel…
We present a method and model for the direct and continuous separation of red and white blood cells in plasma. The method is implemented at the microscale using a microfluidic system that consists of an array of integrated soft-magnetic…
Previous devices to separate cells by the characteristic force they experience due to dielectrophoresis, which depends on the size and electric properties of the particle, were limited by the flow rates and particle concentrations…
Microfluidics and lab-on-a-chip technologies have made it possible to manipulate small volume liquids with unprecedented resolution, automation and integration. However, most current microfluidic systems still rely on bulky off-chip…

The mechanical properties of biological fluids can serve as early indicators of disease, offering valuable insights into complex physiological and pathological processes. However, the existing technologies can hardly support high throughput…
An important step in diagnostics is the isolation of specific cells and microorganisms of interest from blood. Since such bioparticles are often present at very low concentrations, throughput needs to be as high as possible. In addition, to…
Understanding how red blood cell (RBC) suspensions navigate porous materials is critical for for both fundamental physiology, such as maternal-fetal exchange in the placenta, and transformative biomedical applications, including rapid,…
We investigate the effect of particle volume fraction on the efficiency of deterministic lateral displacement (DLD) devices. DLD is a popular passive sorting technique for microfluidic applications. Yet, it has been designed for treating…
Small volume fluid handling in single and multiphase microfluidics provides a promising strategy for efficient bio-chemical assays, low-cost point-of-care diagnostics and new approaches to scientific discoveries. However multiple barriers…
