This paper proposes a capture device to manipulate and transport a cellular aggregate in a micro-well. A cellular aggregate (a few hundreds μm in diameter) is currently manipulated by a pipette. The manual manipulation by a pipette has problems; low reliability, low throughput, and difficulty in confirmation of task completion. We took into account of compatibility with existing methods such as a...
This paper proposes a catcher device to manipulate and transport a cellular aggregate in a micro well. A cellular aggregate (around 100 μm in diameter) is currently manipulated by a pipette. Manual manipulation by a pipette has problems; low reliability, low throughput, and difficulty in confirmation of task completion. μTAS technology, especially various particle manipulation techniques on a fluidic...
One of the grand challenges of self-reconfiguring modular robotics is the assembly of a functional system from thousands of components. However, to date, only systems comprised of small numbers of modules have been demonstrated. One approach to scaling to large numbers of modules is to simplify module design by relieving the modules of the typical power, control, and actuation requirements necessary...
Diffusion is often the rate-limiting step in microfluidic-based biochemical analysis systems. In this paper, an alternative current electrothermal mixer for molecular diagnostic is presented. The mixer consists of a concentric electrode design integrated in a microfluidic cartridge. We investigated the electrothermal flow by visualizing the trajectories of seeded particles. The velocity shows a fourth...
We demonstrate fluidic manipulation and assembly of silicon microchips by creatively combining railed microfluidics and computer-vision aided dynamic chip packaging. Externally fabricated silicon microchips are fluidically guided and self-assembled, potentially enabling low cost fluidic packaging of integrated circuits.
