  1. 1. Buffer modification: A case study with polystyrene beads, DU145-, and MCF7 cell lines

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Olivia Hansson Rengbrandt; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Separation of cancer cells gives advantages in understanding the disease, guiding treatment decisions, and facilitating drug development. Overall, separation plays an important role in biological research. Acoustophoresis is a technique that utilizes acoustic waves to separate particles and cells suspended in a buffer medium.

  3. 2. Synthetic gel particle formation for acoustofluidic applications

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Thibaut Valery; [2022]
    Keywords : agarose gel particles; acoustofluidics; droplet generation; microfluidic chip; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Cancer cell detection by particle sorting systems is a very challenging field which could help to discover cancers at an earlier stage. Acoustophoresis used as a particle sorting system is based on the difference between the acoustic properties of particles and the medium. READ MORE

  4. 3. Improving cell secretome analysis and bacteria evolution by means of acoustophoresis

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Moritz Leuthner; [2020]
    Keywords : acoustophoresis; acoustofluidic; lab-on-a-chip; acoustic streaming; acoustic radiation force; particle trapping; particle washing; bulk acoustic waves; BAW; media exchange; cell manipulation;

    Abstract : In both, cell secretome analysis and bacteria evolution, controlled handling of particles with a few to sub-micrometers in size and media exchange are inevitable in order to investigate body fluid’s proteins or change the surrounding culture conditions for pivoted evolution. Typically, nanofiltration and ultra-centrifugation are employed which can lead to cell damage, need large sample volumes and have a high sample loss. READ MORE

  6. 5. Acoustofluidic Separation of Cardiomyocytes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Sara Thuresson; [2016]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Heart failure is one of the most common reasons for death in the modern society. As the field of tissue engineering is evolving, cardiac patches as treatment for suffering patients holds future promise. However, methods for efficient purification of cardiomyocytes from biopsies are lacking, hindering the development of such solutions. READ MORE
