Characterization of Shrink Film Properties for Rapid ... - MDPI
2024年2月1日 · We investigated the characteristics and fabrication of a shrink film microfluidic device using a polystyrene (PS)-based shrink film (Shrinky Dinks, Alex Brands, Fairfield, NJ, USA). The shrink film was cut into rectangular pieces with dimensions of 20 mm by 30 mm using an automated paper-cutting machine (Cameo 4, Silhouette America, Lindon, UT ...
High throughput microfluidic nanobubble generation by …
2024年1月1日 · To create NBs, we first generate MBs with diameters ranging from 1 to 4 µm at the pores of the microporous membrane in the microfluidic device. The MBs then shrink in size and become NBs when the gas from the bubbles' core dissolves into the liquid medium.
Progress of shrink polymer micro- and nanomanufacturing
2021年11月3日 · The heat-shrink technique is likely to reduce the sample consumption of microfluidic devices. Bo Zhang and coauthors 28 proposed a microfluidic chemical sensor based on a heat-shrink...
Shrink-Induced Single-Cell Plastic Microwell Array
2011年12月1日 · We have developed an ultrarapid and simple method to create single-cell wells of controllable diameter and depth with commodity shrink-wrap film and tape. Using a programmable CO 2 laser, we cut hole arrays into the tape.
