A passive portable microfluidic blood-plasma separator for simultaneous determination of direct and indirect ABO/Rh blood typing
(2019-09-03)
Article
Open AccessThe blood typing test is mandatory in any transfusion, organ transplant, and pregnancy situation. There is a lack of point-of-care (POC) blood typing that could perform both direct and indirect methods using a single droplet ... -
Cost-effective microfabrication of sub-micron-depth channels by femto-laser anti-stiction texturing
(2020-02-26)
Article
Open AccessMicro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) and microfluidic devices have found numerous applications in the industrial sector. However, they require a fast, cost-effective and reliable manufacturing process in order to compete ... -
Flow control in porous media: from numerical analysis to quantitative µPAD for ionic strength measurements
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2021-05-11)
Article
Open AccessMicrofluidic paper-based analytical devices (µPADs) are a promising technology to enable accurate and quantitative in situ assays. Paper’s inherent hydrophilicity drives the fluids without the need for external pressure ... -
Hemostasis-on-a-chip: Impedance spectroscopy meets microfluidics for hemostasis evaluation
(2019-08-14)
Article
Open AccessIn the case of vascular injury, a complex process (of clotting) starts, involving mainly platelets and coagulation factors. This process in healthy humans is known as hemostasis, but when it is deregulated (thrombosis), ... -

(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2020-05-11)
Doctoral thesis
Open AccessThe research is motivated by real applications, such as pasteurization plant, water networks and autonomous system, which each of them require a specific control system to provide proper management able to take into account ... -
Novel variable radius spiral-shaped micromixer: from numerical analysis to experimental validation
(2018-10-27)
Article
Open AccessA novel type of spiral micromixer with expansion and contraction parts is presented in order to enhance the mixing quality in the low Reynolds number regimes for point-of-care tests (POCT). Three classes of micromixers ... -
Numerical and experimental analysis of a high-throughput blood plasma separator for point-of-care applications
(2021-05)
Article
Open AccessBlood plasma separation from undiluted blood is an essential step in many diagnostic procedures. This study focuses on the numerical optimization of the microfluidic blood plasma separator (BPS) and experimental validation ... -
Portable 3D-printed sensor to measure ionic strength and pH in buffered and non-buffered solutions
(2020-01-01)
Article
Open AccessA miniaturized 3D-printed device has been designed, manufactured and validated to perform as a low-cost sensor for compositional analysis of buffered and non-buffered solutions in industrial or remote areas. The proposed ...
