A rapid and low-cost nonlithographic method to fabricate biomedical microdevice...

Pinto, Elmano; Faustino, Vera; Rodrigues, Raquel O.; Pinho, Diana; Garcia, Valdemar; Miranda, João M.; Lima, Rui Alberto Madeira Macedo

Microfluidic devices are electrical/mechanical systems that offer the ability to work with minimal sample volumes, short reactions times, and have the possibility to perform massive parallel operations. An important application of microfluidics is blood rheology in microdevices, which has played a key role in recent developments of lab-on-chip devices for blood sampling and analysis. The most popular and tradit...

The interest in the development of blood analogues has been increasing recently as a consequence of the increment in the number of experimental hemodynamic studies and the difficulties associated with the manipulation of real blood in vitro because of ethical, economical or hazardous issues. Although one-phase Newtonian and non-Newtonian blood analogues can be found in the literature, there are very few studies...

Microbubble moving in blood flow in microchannels: effect on the cell-free laye...

Bento, D.; Sousa, Lúcia; Yaginuma, T.; Garcia, Valdemar; Lima, Rui Alberto Madeira Macedo; Miranda, João M.

Gas embolisms can hinder blood flow and lead to occlusion of the vessels and ischemia. Bubbles in microvessels circulate as tubular bubbles (Taylor bubbles) and can be trapped, blocking the normal flow of blood. To understand how Taylor bubbles flow in microcirculation, in particular, how bubbles disturb the blood flow at the scale of blood cells, experiments were performed in microchannels at a low Capillary n...
