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...
One of the most promising applications of microfluidics technology has been proven to be the single-cell analysis. Hardly a week goes by without a new microfluidic development for microfluidic single-cell analysis. Over the nearly past decade, the field has accelerated at a high rate and...
Axons play a major role in the transmission of neuronal signals along the central nervous system. Dysfunction or degeneration of these neurons is seen in many neurodegenerative diseases as well as spinal cord injuries for many of which no cure has been found yet....
Prostate cancer being one of the major causing death in men has been the focus of attention for many researchers around the world. Early diagnostics of this type of cancer can significantly increase the chance of survival. Therefore, many efforts have been made to...
.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...
