  1. 6. Signal amplification in a microfluidic immunoassay system via Binding Oligo Ladder Detection : Applying the Exazym® signal amplification to the Gyrolab® platform

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaci

    Author : Daniel Wiman; [2023]
    Keywords : immunoassay; ultra-sensitive; signal amplification; Gyrolab; Exazym; high sensitivity; microfluidics; BOLD amplification; nucleic acid polymerisation;

    Abstract : Immunoassays are analytical methods that use the highly specific binding of antibodies in order to detect and quantify an analyte. The technique has become a staple in modern biopharmaceutical research and diagnostics, however the measurement of biomarkers like dysregulated cytokines require ultra-sensitive immunoassays that can detect molecules at sub pg/mL concentrations.

  3. 7. General Defocus Particle Tracking

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Joakim Anderberg; [2023]
    Keywords : General Defocus Particle Tracking; ultrasonic standing waves; microscopy; microchip; single plane particle tracking; levitation; Generel ur-fokus partikel spårning; stående ultraljudsvågor; mikroskopi; mikorchip; enkelplans partikel spårning; levitation;

    Abstract : Three-dimensional particle tracking is a valuable tool in microfluidics for obtaining information about a system. General Defocus Particle Tracking (GDPT) is a straightforward method of 3D particle tracking that only requires a single-camera plane, making it applicable to existing equipment in a laboratory.

  4. 8. Optimising microfluidic preparation of lipid sponge phase nanoparticles for biomolecule encapsulation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Owais Khalil; [2023]
    Keywords : Sponge phase; lipid nanoparticles; microfluidics; SAXS; cryo-TEM; DLS; chemical engineering; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Drug delivery with lipid nanoparticles, especially sponge phase lipid nanoparticles (LNP), has been well studied because of its ability for drug encapsulation and transferring the drug through the cell membrane. The sponge phase LNP formulation could be affected by the molecular structure of the lipid, the temperature, pH, dilution, the buffer, and the addition of a stabiliser. READ MORE

  5. 9. Optical Detector for Microfluidics

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för informationsteknologi

    Author : Carlos Gómez Jiménez; Jaime Gómez Jiménez; [2022]
    Keywords : Serial crystallography; Microfluidic device; Optical detector; Particle counting;

    Abstract : This project arose from the need to filter the sampled data and eliminate non-useful information in Serial Crystallography in Microfluidic Device (MFD)by using a portable optical detector placed around the channel. By testing sixteen different configurations, always using an LED as a source and a photodiode as a light sensor, changes in the channel due to the passage of air bubbles were detected. READ MORE

  6. 10. 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
