  1. 6. Utveckling av Polydimetylsiloxan-Mikropartiklar för Biomedicinsk NMR

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Mohammad Al-Sultani; Josef Djärf; [2022]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy is a technique for identifying molecular structures, compositions etc. and is widely used in many life science research fields. The purpose of this project is to synthesize PDMS microparticles with a magnetic susceptibility matching water, which makes them applicable for use in NMR of biological samples. READ MORE

  3. 7. Design improvements for an Organ-on-chip system : Implementation and evaluation of a bubble trap

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Albin Jonasson; Linnéa Soto Carlsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Organ-on-chip; Microfluidics; Lab-on-chip; Lab-on-a-chip; bubble trap; epithelial; endothelial; cells; biomedical engineering; chip; TEER; Mikrofluidik; labb-på-chip; organ-på-chip; medicinsk teknik; medicinteknik; TEER; bubbelfälla; epitelceller; endotelceller;

    Abstract : The field of organ-on-chip is a relatively new area of research and builds upon the principle of engineering microfluidic systems to mimic the body’s internal environment as precisely as possible. Eventually these models could hopefully simulate whole organ-systems and enable the examination of the cell’s or organ’s reaction to foreign substances like new pharmaceuticals in a better way than current models.

    Abstract : The passive particle separation method of elasto-inertial microfluidics have greatpotential in the field of physics, biology and chemistry. The objective of thisdegree project was to understand particle behavior in curved microchannels fornon-Newtonian fluids. READ MORE

  5. 9. Characterization of Agarose Microdroplet Properties for Acoustic Trapping of Encapsulated Bacteria and On-chip DNA Extraction

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Mikrosystemteknik

    Author : Tinde Höjer; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aim of this project was to investigate if the translation of a DNA extraction protocol to on-chip, for the purpose of reducing the total assay time, would be possible. This was to be enabled by encapsulating bacteria in hydrogel microdroplets that would then be acoustically trapped in a microfluidic system. READ MORE

  6. 10. An evaluation of materials and processes suitable for manufacturing micro HASEL-actuators

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Mikrosystemteknik

    Author : Anna Lindgren; [2021]
    Keywords : HASEL-actuator; paraffin blend;

    Abstract : HASEL-actuators use dielectric liquids and compliant shells as their media. This type of actuatorwould suit the actuators used as fins for soft milli robots (SOMIRO). These robots are going tobe used in aquaponic crops for studying its impact on the environment to help the farmersimprove their crops. READ MORE
