Enhanced Blood Plasma Extraction Utilising Viscoelastic Effects in a Serpentine Microchannel

Enhanced Blood Plasma Extraction Utilising Viscoelastic Effects in a Serpentine Microchannel

Plasma extraction from blood is essential for diagnosis of many diseases. The critical process of plasma extraction requires removal of blood cells from whole blood. Fluid viscoelasticity promotes cell migration towards the central axis of flow due to differences in normal stress and physical proper...
