1. 1. Characterization of Pressure and Velocity Fields in Acoustophoresis Using Particle Tracks

   University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

   Author : Jonathan Karlsson; [2023]
   Keywords : Acoustofluidics; Acoustophoresis; Ultrasonic Standing Waves; Acoustic fields; Particle tracking; Bio marking; Akustofluidik; Akustofores; Stående Ultraljuds Vågor; Akustiska fält; Particle tracking; Bio-markering;

   Abstract : This master’s thesis explores the possibility of calculating and using the pressure andvelocity fields responsible for acoustophoresis. The goal was to use simulated data,similar to two-dimensional particle tracks from a specific microfluidic platform, toestimate the force potential and solve the partial differential equation (PDE) thatgoverns the relationship between the force potential and the acoustic fields.

3. 2. Measuring Acoustic Mobility of Particles by Particle Tracking Velocimetry

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Author : Alexander Edthofer; [2022]
   Keywords : acoustophoresis; microfluidics; polystyrene; cells; particle tracking velocimetry; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Acoustophoresis is a method to manipulate and move cells or particles suspended in a medium using acoustic waves. The speed of the acoustophoretic motion depends on the cells' acoustic mobility, i.e. their size, density and compressibility relative to the medium. READ MORE

4. 3. Determining the Acoustic Mobility of Breast Cancer Cells

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Author : Simon Olsson; [2022]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Breast cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer detected in women. Its heterogeneity and large mutational landscape requires treatment strategies which varies between patients. Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a particularly aggressive subtype which 12-17 \% of breast cancer patient develop. READ MORE

5. 4. Investigation of acoustic whole blood plasmapheresis for minimization of endogenous blood loss in neonatal care

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Author : Tobias Lindgren; [2021]
   Keywords : Acoustophoresis; peristaltic pump; flow cytometry; plasmapheresis; whole blood; extremely premature infants; Microfluidics; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Early erythrocyte transfusion is common in infants born extremely premature. Research has shown that these children are at greater risk of morbidity later in life, and that iatrogenic blood loss from blood sample analysis is one of the contributing factors to the need for transfusions.

6. 5. Evaluation of OSTE-hybrid materials for acoustophoresis applications

   University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

   Author : Elin Forss; [2020]
   Keywords : Acoustophoresis; off-stoichiometry-thiol-enes; OSTE; microfluidics;

   Abstract : This project aimed at exploring new hybrid materials to be used for acoustophoresis applications. Acoustophoresis can be used to manipulate particles inside a microfluidic channel by creating ultrasound standing waves within the channel [1]. This can be used for cell separation [2] or trapping of particles [3]. READ MORE
