  1. 1. Buffer optimisation for an improved cell separation using Acoustophoresis with Polystyrene particles, Jurkat, MCF-7 and DU-145 cell lines

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Lovisa Silversand; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Akustophores är rörelse av partiklar/celler under inverkan av ljud. Partikel- och cell separation är en applikation som kan utföras av akustophores. Detta är en viktig teknik eftersom den kan avslöja viktig information om sjukdomar och celler och därigenom förbättra valet av behandling inom sjukvården. READ MORE

  2. 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

  3. 3. Improving bright-field images for tracking particles with Defocustracker

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Carl Lundin; [2022]
    Keywords : Defocustracker; GDPT; particle tracking; bright-field; acoustophoresis; Laplacian of Gaussian; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Acoustophoresis is a cell separation technology where particles or cells are suspended in a fluid container and subject to acoustic standing waves. The standing waves exerts an acoustic radiation force on the particles, pushing them towards the nodal plane. READ MORE

  4. 4. Pushing the boundaries of acoustic particle separation: achieving high-throughput, avoiding spillover effects, investigating the effects of the particle concentration, and measuring acoustic properties

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Linda Péroux; [2022]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Acoustophoresis, i.e., the contactless manipulation of small cells or particles via acoustic waves is a gentle and label-free method that can, amongst others, be used to isolate rare cells such as circulating tumor cells from blood. To isolate enough cells, a large amount of sample needs to be processed in a reasonable amount of time. READ MORE

  5. 5. The prospects of using acoustic particle separation techniques to separate heavy metals from lake- and seabed sediments

    University essay from KTH/Marcus Wallenberg Laboratoriet MWL

    Author : Ohan Lundblad; [2021]
    Keywords : acoustic particle separation; ultrasound; acoustics; particle separation; akustisk partikelseparation; ultraljud; akustik; partikelseparation; akustisk partikelseparationsteknik; akustisk separationsteknik;

    Abstract : This work aims to investigate if it is realistic to use acoustic particle separation techniques for separating heavy-metals from pump-dredged seabed sediments on a large scale. A premise for the project has been that the material should undergo hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) before acoustic treatment. READ MORE
