A droplet-based microfluidic platform for rapid immobilization of quantum dots on individual magnetic microbeads
(Springer Nature, 2018-06-01)Quantum dots (QDs) provide opportunities for the development of bioassays, biosensors, and drug delivery strategies. Decoration of the surface of QDs offers unique functions such as resistance to non-specific adsorption, ... -
Experimental study on droplet generation in flow focusing devices considering a stratified flow with viscosity contrast
(Elsevier BV, 2017-05-18)High throughput analysis is highly demanded in a variety of chemical reactions. Droplet microfluidics offers unique advantages over traditional multi-well plate systems for high throughput analysis such as providing a ... -
Harnessing surface-bound enzymatic reactions to organize microcapsules in solution
(American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2016-03)By developing new computational models, we examine how enzymatic reactions on an underlying surface can be harnessed to direct the motion and organization of reagent-laden microcapsules in a fluid-filled microchannel. In ...
