Journal ArticleDOI
Scaling of pneumatic digital logic circuits
TL;DR: This work explored the use of precision machining techniques to reduce the size of pneumatic valves and resistors, and to achieve more accurate and efficient placement of ports and vias, and attained an order of magnitude increase in circuit density.
Journal ArticleDOI
Semi-autonomous liquid handling via on-chip pneumatic digital logic
TL;DR: A liquid-handling chip capable of executing metering, mixing, incubation, and wash procedures largely under the control of on-board pneumatic circuitry, eliminating the need for the off-chip control machinery that is typically required for integrated microfluidics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microfluidic serial dilution ladder
TL;DR: In this article, the authors employ valve-driven circulatory mixing to address these issues and also introduce a novel device structure to store each stage of the dilution process, which is based on sequentially mixing the rungs of a ladder structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
sideSPIM - selective plane illumination based on a conventional inverted microscope.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors devised a new approach termed sideSPIM that provides uncompromised imaging performance and easy sample handling while, at the same time, offering new applications of plane illumination towards fluidics and high throughput 3D imaging of multiple specimen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanopillared Surfaces Disrupt Pseudomonas aeruginosa Mechanoresponsive Upstream Motility.
TL;DR: The design and application of scalable nanopillared surface structures fabricated using nanoimprint lithography that reduce upstream motility and colonization by P. aeruginosa are described and this bacteria-nanostructured surface interface effect allows us to tailor surfaces with specific nanopillsared geometries for disrupting cell motability and attachment in fluid flow systems.
