A ferrobotic system for automated microfluidic logistics.
Science robotics
Feb 26, 2020
Automated technologies that can perform massively parallelized and sequential fluidic operations at small length scales can resolve major bottlenecks encountered in various fields, including medical diagnostics, -omics, drug development, and chemical...
Quantification of Mechanical Forces and Physiological Processes Involved in Pollen Tube Growth Using Microfluidics and Microrobotics.
Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.)
Jan 1, 2020
Pollen tubes face many obstacles on their way to the ovule. They have to decide whether to navigate around cells or penetrate the cell wall and grow through it or even within it. Besides chemical sensing, which directs the pollen tubes on their path ...
Microfluidic cap-to-dispense (μCD): a universal microfluidic-robotic interface for automated pipette-free high-precision liquid handling.
Lab on a chip
Oct 9, 2019
Microfluidic devices have been increasingly used for low-volume liquid handling operations. However, laboratory automation of such delicate devices has lagged behind due to the lack of world-to-chip (macro-to-micro) interfaces. In this paper, we have...
Microwheels on Microroads: Enhanced Translation on Topographic Surfaces.
Science robotics
Jul 31, 2019
Microbot locomotion is challenging because of the reversible nature of microscale fluid flow, a limitation that can be overcome by breaking flowfield symmetry with a nearby surface. We have used this strategy with rotating wheel-shaped microbots, μwh...

Cytopathological image analysis using deep-learning networks in microfluidic microscopy.
Journal of the Optical Society of America. A, Optics, image science, and vision
Jan 1, 2017
Cytopathologic testing is one of the most critical steps in the diagnosis of diseases, including cancer. However, the task is laborious and demands skill. Associated high cost and low throughput drew considerable interest in automating the testing pr...
An integrated design and fabrication strategy for entirely soft, autonomous robots.
Nature
Aug 25, 2016
Soft robots possess many attributes that are difficult, if not impossible, to achieve with conventional robots composed of rigid materials. Yet, despite recent advances, soft robots must still be tethered to hard robotic control systems and power sou...
Highly sensitive detection of human cancer antigens by an immunogold-silver assay chip coupled with a polythiophene-based optical sensor.
Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Aug 1, 2016
This work presents a novel method for protein or cancer antigen detection in clinical samples by an immunogold-silver assay microfluidic biochip coupled with a polythiophene-based organic photodetector. The method has showed a detection limit below 1...
Controlled regular locomotion of algae cell microrobots.
Biomedical microdevices
Jun 1, 2016
Algae cells can be considered as microrobots from the perspective of engineering. These organisms not only have a strong reproductive ability but can also sense the environment, harvest energy from the surroundings, and swim very efficiently, accommo...
