A microfluidic manipulation system that can sense a liquid and control its flow is highly desirable. However, conventional sensors and motors have difficulty fitting the limited space in microfluidic devices; moreover, fast sensing and actuation are ...
Biofluids such as synovial fluid, blood plasma, and saliva contain several proteins which impart non-Newtonian properties to the biofluids. The concentration of such protein macromolecules in biofluids is regarded as an important biomarker for the di...
A deep learning-based method for optimizing a membraneless microfluidic fuel cell (MMFC)performance by combining the artificial neural network (ANN) and genetic algorithm (GA) was for the first time introduced. A three-dimensional multiphysics model ...

OBJECTIVE: In aerobiological monitoring and agriculture there is a pressing need for accurate, label-free and automated analysis of pollen grains, in order to reduce the cost, workload and possible errors associated to traditional approaches.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is an emerging technology with great potential, and its robust calculation and analysis capabilities are unmatched by traditional calculation tools. With the promotion of deep learning and open-source platforms, the thres...
Sickle cell disease, a genetic disorder affecting a sizeable global demographic, manifests in sickle red blood cells (sRBCs) with altered shape and biomechanics. sRBCs show heightened adhesive interactions with inflamed endothelium, triggering painfu...
Early detection and identification of microbial contaminants is crucial in many sectors, including clinical diagnostics, food quality control and environmental monitoring. Biosensors have recently gained attention among other bacterial detection tech...

Microfluidic encapsulation of cells/tissues in hydrogel microcapsules has attracted tremendous attention in the burgeoning field of cell-based medicine. However, when encapsulating rare cells and tissues (e.g., pancreatic islets and ovarian follicles...
We present sensing time-lapse morphogenesis of living bone cells under micro-fluidic shear stress (FSS) by digital holographic (DH) microscopy. To remove the effect of aberrations on quantitative measurements, we propose a numerical and automatic met...
The identification, sorting and analysis of rare target single cells in human blood has always been a clinically meaningful medical challenge. Here, we developed a microfluidic robot platform for sorting specific rare cells from complex clinical bloo...
