Single-cell microfluidic impedance cytometry: a review (2010, background): “Lab-on-chip technologies (Manz et al. 1992; Whitesides and Stroock 2001; Thorsen et al. 2002; Beebe et al. 2002; Stone et al. 2004; Squires and Quake 2005; Whitesides 2006) offer new approaches for cell assays, and new technologies are being developed for high-speed cell manipulation.”
Induced-charge electro-osmosis (2003, background): “Recent developments in micro-fabrication and the technological promise of microfluidic ‘labs on a chip’ have brought a renewed interest to the study of low-Reynoldsnumber flows (Stone & Kim 2001; Whitesides & Stroock 2001; Reyes et al. (2002)).”
Hard and soft micromachining for BioMEMS: review of techniques and examples of applications in microfluidics and drug delivery. (2004, background): “PDMS is inexpensive, biocompatible, and has excellent sealing properties, making it very suitable for microfluidics [27].”
A review of microfabrication techniques and dielectrophoretic microdevices for particle manipulation and separation (2014, background): “Among those polymers applied for fabricating microfluidic devices, PDMS is particularly appealing due to its transparency, flexibility, low-cost and compatibility [82,83].”
ENGINEERING FLOWS IN SMALL DEVICES (2004, background): “…integrated flow configurations with length scales on the order of tens and hundreds of microns and smaller (e.g., Ho & Tai 1998, Stone & Kim 2001, Whitesides & Stroock 2001), (b) rapid developments in biology and biotechnology for which manipulations on the cellular length scale (and below) and…”
Viscous flow through microfabricated hyperbolic contractions (2007, background): “6 and 7) and the no-slip boundary condition were assumed to hold, a result that is well established for Newtonian fluid flows at these micrometer lengthscales (Whitesides and Stroock 2001; Karniadakis et al. 2005).”
Self-cleaning surfaces — virtual realities (2003, unknown): “Beyond the possibility of improving deposit shapes on substrates, the possibility of a guided motion of droplets on ultraphobic surfaces offers the chance to develop a droplet-based microfluidics system, in contrast to the classical concept based on microfluidic channel”
Building drug delivery into tissue engineering design (2002, background): “These diverse applications reflect the many advantages of processing fluid systems in small dimension”
