Researchers developed a microfluidic chip with 3D-printed microstructures that moves droplets precisely, captures cells efficiently, and quickly forms cell spheroids for improved lab-grown tissue ...

A new microfluidic device developed by scientists from Harvard and MIT consists of posts made from carbon nanotubes that can capture cancer cells. Approximately the size of a dime, the new iteration ...

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) refer to cancer cells that have broken off from a primary tumor. These tumor cells can travel through the blood in the circulatory system and lodge themselves in other ...

Researchers have discovered how bacteria break through spaces barely larger than themselves, by wrapping their flagella ...

This image shows the 2-D microfluidic trap. (a) This is an optical micrograph of a microfluidic manipulation device. Single particles are confined at a predetermined location within the junction of ...

Modern biology is driven by technology, explains Philip J. Lee, Ph.D., co-founder, president, and director of research at CellASIC a five-year-old company that develops microfluidic technologies for ...

A tiny microfluidic device can improve cell therapy techniques for spinal cord injury patients. The device can remove a large percentage of stem cells that have not yet fully become spinal cord cells, ...

Researchers have discovered a novel criterion for sorting particles in microfluidic channels, paving the way for advancements in disease diagnostics and liquid biopsies. Using the supercomputer ...
