Abstract The efficient and precise extraction of target particles is a crucial prerequisite for achieving accurate detection analysis in microfluidic cell analysis. In this study, symmetrical contraction–expansion microchannel with sheath flow was designed, aiming to extract larger from different sizes within the channel. This paper conducted numerical simulations investigate three‐dimensional migration mechanisms performed experimental studies examine separation performance under varying rate ratios numbers structures. results indicate that at moderate sample rates higher ratios, microchannels fewer structures are likely achieve better extracting compared greater number these Our work advances application viscoelastic particle separation. device easy set up parallel significantly enhances throughput, providing an solution future applications.

Sweat is a noninvasive metabolite that can provide clinically meaningful information about physical conditions without harming the body. Glucose, vital component in sweat, closely related to blood glucose levels, and changes its concentration reflect health status of diabetics. We introduce self-adhesive, wearable microfluidic chip with erasable liquid metal plasmonic hotspots for precise detection sweat. The made from modified polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) enhanced stickiness, enabling conformal contact skin, collect, deliver, store are located inside channel, generated by synthesizing silver nanostructures on metal, be removed alkaline solution. It indicates reproducible nature hotspots. method based surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), which allows accurate concentration. To enhance sensitive glucose, SERS substrate 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid achieve limit 1 ng/L much lower than physiological (7.2–25.2 μg/L). developed soft, stretchable, nontoxic, bringing new possibilities sweat-sensing devices.

Fluid–structure interaction (FSI) is a nonlinear multiphysics phenomenon that describes the interactions between incompressible fluid flows and immersed structures, making it invaluable to biomedical research. In this work, common FSI methodologies in research were systematically summarized classified into three groups based on interfaces: fluid–channel interfaces, fluid–particle multi-interface interactions. A discussion of role numerical methods was also made, outlining its indispensable advantage handling complex geometries, boundary conditions, thus interfaces. The applications these are discussed terms blood vessel-related applications, drug-delivering micropumps, particle dynamics/cell sorting, deformation rapture. development progress, current advances, prospects FSI's future application illustrated. It concluded with advances computation technologies, rapidly developing can achieve state-of-the-art level details, helping improve our understanding various biomedical-related problems use techniques likely continue grow.

The ability to manipulate and focus particles within microscale fluidic environments is crucial advancing biological, chemical, medical research. Precise high-throughput particle focusing an essential prerequisite for various applications, including cell counting, biomolecular detection, sample sorting, enhancement of biosensor functionalities. Active sheath-assisted techniques offer accuracy but necessitate the introduction external energy fields or additional sheath flows. In contrast, passive methods exploit inherent fluid dynamics in achieving without actuation. This review analyzes latest developments strategies sheathless inertial focusing, emphasizing elasto-inertial microfluidic from channel structure classifications. These methodologies will serve as pivotal benchmarks broader application technologies biological manipulation. Then, prospects future development are also predicted. paper assist understanding design devices.

Serpentine channels coupling inertial and secondary flows enable effective particle focusing separation, showing great potential in clinical diagnostics drug screening. However, the nonsteady serpentine channel make evolution of migration unclear, hindering development application channel. Herein, to refine mechanism, we established a model with varying curvature ratios study effect flow on This method used direct numerical simulation (DNS) calculate lift, mapped lift cross sections channel, deciphered by using Lagrangian tracking (LPT) method. The microparticles is experimentally investigated validate model. results indicate that follows two-stage migration. An increase accelerates second stage process while slowing first process. Subsequently, effects different parameters, including Reynolds number, aspect ratio, blockage equilibrium positions particles, providing guidelines for high-resolution separation particles. Taking resistance into account, dimensionless makes arbitrary-sized particles possible. work reveals mechanism channels, paving way

Glaucoma is the world's second-leading irreversible eye disease causing blindness. Although pathogenesis of glaucoma not particularly well understood, high intraocular pressure (IOP) widely recognized as a significant risk factor. In clinical practice, various devices have been used to measure IOP, but most them cannot provide continuous measurements for long time. To meet needs patients who experience frequent fluctuations in IOP and require constant monitoring, we fabricated an implantable piezoresistive sensor based on microfluidic technology. The has sensitivity 0.00257 Ω/mbar demonstrates excellent linearity, stability, repeatability. According calibration data, average measurement error ±0.5 mbar. We implanted it into vitreous rabbit successfully detected its fluctuations. simple design, easy fabricate, can be long-term measurements. It presents new approach microfluidic-based sensors offers novel method daily care with glaucoma.
