Optimizing Dielectrophoresis by Inducing Fluid Flow Using Droplet Oscillation
In regular biosensors, the detected bacteria have to be in drawn towards the sensing area. To increase the sensitivity of the biosensors, bacteria should be drawn towards the sensing area, which can be achieved by dielectrophoresis (DEP). DEP is a mechanism which is used to move ... En savoir plus
Optimisation of Sensor Integration in Organ-on-Chip Platforms
Organs-on-Chips (OoCs) are microfluidics-based systems that aim to recapitulate the in-vivo behaviour of specific organs. Using a network of microfluidic channels, OoCs provide a biophysical and biochemical environment to sustain complex 2D and 3D cell cultures systems that recapitulate ... En savoir plus
Simulation of Bioreactor Flow Characteristics and Cell Cultivation
Bioreactors play a critical role in cultivating biological cells for various applications, such as pharmaceutical production and tissue engineering. Optimizing the cultivation process requires a deep understanding of the flow characteristics within the bioreactor medium. In this study, ... En savoir plus
3-D Modeling of Stresses and Strains in Accessory Carpal Bone Under Maximum Compressive Loading
When treating fractures of the accessory carpal bones in horses, it is important to understand the forces that implants (screws and plates) must withstand. The etiology of the fracture is not fully understood, but their high incidence during exercise suggests a relation to biomechanical ... En savoir plus
Analysis of cancer cell behaviour using sub-THz excitation in COMSOL Multiphysics
In this paper, analysis of cancer cell using Sub-THz technology have been studied. Sub-THz technique for cancer detection is a much reliable and safer technique as compared to conventional methods [1,2]. To study the behavior of cancer cells and normal cells using Sub-THz technology, a ... En savoir plus
Designing and Fabrication of Lab On a Chip for the Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Erlotinib
Microfluidics and Biosensors are two principal fields that paved the way for the inception of Lab-on-a-chip (LOC) which provides early and cost-effective disease detection, from monitoring to treatment. LOC is a device that uses very small amounts of fluid on a microchip to do certain ... En savoir plus
Geometry Optimization of Enzymatic Electrochemical Glucose Sensor
Diabetes is a metabolic disorder that is on a rising tide. Diabetic patients must regularly monitor their blood glucose levels. One method for designing such a device is using electrochemical principles, specifically amperometry to determine glucose concentration. It is essential to ... En savoir plus
Chemical Gradients, Carryover and Mixing in Fluidic Diagnostic Systems
Recent events underscore the importance of rapid diagnostic tests for detecting viruses such as the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus or for screening cancer biomarkers. Many fluidic-based diagnostics applications require careful control of chemical and biological species concentrations. In this ... En savoir plus
Image based, geometry prescribed CFD of intra-cardiac flows on a dynamic heart phantom
Introduction: The current gold standard for measuring intra-cardiac blood flow is cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) and Color-Doppler ultrasound [ref1]. The presented simulation pipeline extracts heart wall motion from medical imaging and simulates the intra-cardiac blood flow as an ... En savoir plus
FE-Simulation of PTCA Balloon Catheters
Within 40 years, percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) catheters evolved into the golden standard for treating coronary stenoses. However, navigating through tortuous vessel pathways and cracking highly calcified lesions is challenging. To minimize the risk of ... En savoir plus
