A review of the theory, methods and recent applications of high-throughput single-cell droplet microfluidics (2013, methodology): “separation by DLD [141] or inertial focusing [144], and”
Microfluidic bio-particle manipulation for biotechnology (2014, methodology): “To utilize the Dean flow for particle anipulation, spiral and serpentine channels are required, and the adius of curvature of the channels is critical [32].”
Dynamics of particle migration in channel flow of viscoelastic fluids (2014, methodology): “Due to the oscillation in fluid velocity and strong normal stress differences that develop during flow start-up, the particle has a larger transient migration velocity, which may be potentially used to accelerate the particle-focusing.”
Frontiers of chaotic advection (2014, background): “Inertial effects are also beginning to be used in microfluidic systems (Di Carlo, 2009) where chaotic advection phenomenon is now commonly used (see Section VIII.”
Recent Advances and Future Perspectives on Microfluidic Liquid Handling (2017, methodology): “Inertial microfluidics is a suitable method for rare cell sorting, due to such various advantages as high throughput, simplicity, precise manipulation and low cost [59,60].”
