  1. 1. 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

  3. 2. Acoustic trapping of sub-micrometreparticles within microfluidics particles within microfluidics

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Mikrosystemteknik; Uppsala universitet/Polymerkemi

    Author : Björn Stenestam; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aim of this project was to prove that a pre-existing standardmethod for bacterial-DNA extraction can be reduced down to the microscale and in doing so be used in an on-chip setting.The first phase in this project was to identify an appropriate methodand material for droplet generation.

  4. 3. Factors influencing the generation of carbon monoxide in fires partially suppressed through water mist application

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Haydn Lewis; [2020]
    Keywords : Fire safety engineering; water mist; fire suppression; carbon monoxide; water; combustion; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Fires in the built environment typically consist of diffusion flames with inefficient mixing of fuel and oxygen, resulting in a degree of incomplete combustion and the generation of carbon monoxide. Fire suppression systems, used to control the growth and spread of fire, influence the combustion reaction process. READ MORE

  5. 4. Detection of hotspot mutations in IDH1/2 in patients withacute myeloid leukemia using Droplet Digital PCR

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för medicinska vetenskaper

    Author : Johanna Wågberg; [2020]
    Keywords : AML; IDH1; IDH2; ddPCR; NGS;

    Abstract : IntroductionAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) is caused by a wide range of genetic aberrations, includingmutations within the genes that encode the enzymes isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2(IDH1/2). Drugs that target mutant IDH1/2 are now available, which makes assessment of themutational status of IDH1/2 important in clinical diagnostics of AML. READ MORE

  6. 5. Design, evaluation and use of a microfluidic device for automated production of mucin microparticles for cell encapsulation for diabetes therapy

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Bharathesh Badadamath; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Droplet microfluidics has prevalent growth in a wide range of applications in the life science field. This project is one such example where we used a droplet microfluidics tool for treating diabetes mellitus type 1. Mucin hydrogels (Muc-gels) modulate the immune response driving biomaterialinduced fibrosis.[1]. READ MORE
