.Double emulsions are core-shell droplets that often have an aqueous droplet within a larger organic droplet or vice versa that are usually made using droplet microfluidic chips for uniform production. They have found many applications in microfluidic cell culture, bacteria culturing, protein synthesis, etc. The...
Imagine having a micron-sized operating room equipped with a toolbox full of microtools with which you could perform a micro/nano-operation. A research group in Japan has now taken advantage of microfluidic microfabrication techniques to develop a microfluidic workbench. The microfluidic workbench consists of microchambers equipped...
Single-cell analysis has become one of the most important applications of microfluidic technology in recent years. It refers to the process of isolation, manipulation, and analysis of the cells at single-cell resolution in microfluidic chips. Depending on the application, single-cell analysis chips can include any...
In addition to being an effective means of thermoregulation for the body, sweat can be a valuable source for non-invasive analysis of body physiology. The sweat rate, for example, can reflect health conditions such as nerve damage, metabolic disorders, etc. Despite its significance, several factors...
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) occurs when the head experiences a violent hit and can cause disruption in regular brain activity1. Similar to many other diseases, early diagnosis of TBI can prevent progression towards irreversible damages. This is further highlighted in patients with unclear or minor...
