Cost-effective microfabrication of sub-micron-depth channels by femto-laser anti-stiction texturing
(2020-02-26)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyMicro 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 ... -
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 ... -
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), ... -
Enhanced fully cellulose based forward and reverse blood typing assay
(2019-05-07)
Article
Open AccessThis study presents an enhanced paper-based analytical device (PAD) for forward and reverse group blood typing. The proposed PAD uses a novel methodology, which provides highly reliable results on a fully cellulose based ... -
Optimal machining strategy selection in ball-end milling of hardened steels for injection molds
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2019-03-01)
Article
Open AccessIn the present study, the groups of cutting conditions that minimize surface roughness and its variability are determined, in ball-end milling operations. Design of experiments is used to define experimental tests performed. ... -
Novel applications of nonwood cellulose for blood typing assays
(2018-10-03)
Article
Open AccessPaper-based microfluidics devices can create a new healthcare model. Cellulose is carbohydrate polymer biocompatible and hydrophilic. These characteristics enhance the development of user-friendly diagnostic devices, but ... -
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 ...
