Journal ArticleDOI

Monolithic microfabricated valves and pumps by multilayer soft lithography

TL;DR: An extension to the soft lithography paradigm, multilayersoft lithography, with which devices consisting of multiple layers may be fabricated from soft materials is described, to build active microfluidic systems containing on-off valves, switching valves, and pumps entirely out of elastomer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microfluidics: Fluid physics at the nanoliter scale

TL;DR: A review of the physics of small volumes (nanoliters) of fluids is presented, as parametrized by a series of dimensionless numbers expressing the relative importance of various physical phenomena as mentioned in this paper.
PatentDOI

Microfluidic large scale integration

TL;DR: The fluidic multiplexor as discussed by the authors is a combinatorial array of binary valve patterns that exponentially increases the processing power of a network by allowing complex fluid manipulations with a minimal number of inputs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of reactive oxygen species levels and radioresistance in cancer stem cells

TL;DR: It is shown that normal mammary epithelial stem cells contain lower concentrations of ROS than their more mature progeny cells, and subsets of CSCs in some tumours contain lower ROS levels and enhanced ROS defences compared to their non-tumorigenic progeny, which may contribute to tumour radioresistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic pattern formation in a vesicle-generating microfluidic device.

TL;DR: It is shown that a microfluidic device designed to produce reverse micelles can generate complex, ordered patterns as it is continuously operated far from thermodynamic equilibrium.
