Red blood cell (RBC) disorders affect these oxygen-carrying cells and can cause severe damage to the body. Rare hereditary hemolytic anemia (RHHA) is one of these disorders and is associated with the premature removal of defective cells from the spleen. A novel microfluidic advancement can...
Droplet-based microfluidics is one of the most promising areas of microfluidics that is now quite established for a wide range of applications such as microfluidic single-cell analysis, directed evolution, microparticle synthesis, etc. Double emulsions (DEs) have enhanced the droplet microfluidic toolbox by allowing single emulsions...
How does a tiny sperm find its way through the female reproductive tract which is highly complex? The fallopian tube is covered with a labyrinthine epithelium layer that plays an important role in the natural selection of the sperm. How does all that curvature affect...
TORONTO (PRWEB) June 09, 2021 — Canada-based manufacturer uFluidix has doubled its manufacturing capacity to meet the increased demands for Microfluidics triggered by the Covid-19 pandemic. This surge in demand is based on two factors; the need for volume manufacturing of Covid-19 test cartridges and the influx...
The Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the pathogen causing tuberculosis has a multi-layered cell wall that regulates the metabolite transfer through the membrane and prevents antibiotics from entering the cell. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) can adapt its growth rate according to the available nutrients in the environment. Previous studies...
