Open Droplets: Programming Chemical Flow in Microfluidics

Baret J-C., University of Bordeaux, FR

Droplet-based microfluidics is the key technology for the miniaturization and automation of assays in microcompartments. It relies on the use of emulsion droplets as microreactors each encapsulating a biological system of interest (genes, cells, drugs,...) [...]

Fluidic Molecular Processing Devices

Lyshevski M.A., Lyshevski S.E., Lyshevski M.A., Lyshevski S.E., Microsystems and Nanotechnologies, US

We study fluidic molecular processing devices and modules to perform processing and related tasks. These developments are envisioned to be utilized in foreseen processing and memory systems. We consider various fluidic devices as modular primitives [...]

Microfluidic Cell Culture System for Live Cell Imaging

Powell M.J., Higashi L.K., Cabasug A.A., Giffin S.M., Alley R.K., Nanopoint Inc., US

Nanopoint has developed a novel micro-fabricated live cell containment device called cellTRAYTM designed specifically for imaging live cells. The device enables the precise containment of cells in an optical glass substrate, the size of a [...]
