Title: "Off-the-shelf" 3-D microfluidic nozzle. Author: Terray A, Hart SJ. Journal: Lab Chip; 2010 Jul 07; 10(13):1729-31. PubMed ID: 20376381. Abstract: We present the construction and operation of a microfluidic nozzle created using several standard fluidic parts available commercially. By elegantly combining several pieces from a standard assembly, a capillary and a few other standard parts, we were able to develop a novel device. Using this device, precise axisymmetric flow focusing of particles was achieved and observed at the exit of the nozzle and within a connected microfluidic device several centimetres away. Sheath and core flow rates were varied to show influence and control over the width of the focused particles.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
