A digital microfluidic biochip (DMFB) is an attractive technology platform for automating laboratory procedures in biochemistry. In recent years, DMFBs based on a microelectrode-dot-array (MEDA) ...

Lab-on-a-chip (LOC) is a well-established microfluidic platform that allows the miniaturization of chemical and biological processes onto a single unit. Minimal sample and reagent consumption, the ...

Microchannels can separate analytes faster with higher resolution, higher efficiency and with lower reagent consumption than typical column techniques. Unfortunately, an impediment in the path toward ...

Scientists at National Taiwan University have developed a new microfluidic system that can detect subtle chemical ...

Danish biotech startup receives EU life grant to commercialise EcoFLEXY, a biofabricated cellulose rheology modifier designed ...

In a microgel droplet we can work with materials in ways that would otherwise have been impossible. But it is extremely tricky to create microgels capable of incubating living materials.

Tiny gel droplets enhanced with University of Queensland technology could open new pathways to repairing and replacing damaged organs. Dr. Ruirui Qiao and her team at UQ's Australian Institute for ...

Nanodroplets have emerged as promising contrast agents due to their ability to undergo acoustic droplet vaporization (ADV), enabling size expansion for diverse biological applications such as ...
