This study involves the design, fabrication and characterization of a biocompatible silicon micropump. Three experiments were conducted to study the performance of this pump in clinical environments. They were a blood compatibility test, and in vitro and ex vivo studies. Whole blood is an intrinsically complex material and difficult to manipulate using a microsystem device. In the blood compatibility...
Despite significant efforts to develop micropumps, cumbersome driving equipment means that the design of portable micropumps remains a challenge. This study presents a stand-alone micropump system, which includes a peristaltic micropump based on piezoelectric actuation and a driving circuit. This battery-based driving circuit comprises a 12 V battery, an ATmega 8535 microprocessor, a 12 V-to-180 V...
