Ultrasound driven bubbles in microfluidics.

Instead of using conventional valves, we look into using bubbles in microfluidics that are remotely-powered with an ultrasonic transducer to move and control fluid. The experimental approach was used in determining the ideal conditions for optimization of transduction. System adopted consisted of a...

description Instead of using conventional valves, we look into using bubbles in microfluidics that are remotely-powered with an ultrasonic transducer to move and control fluid. The experimental approach was used in determining the ideal conditions for optimization of transduction. System adopted consisted of a glass slide with a soft polymer imprinted with microchannels plasma bonded to it. In the later section, bubbles in a flow-focusing device, coupled with ultrasound, were observed with an inverted microscope and high-speed camera.
