Enhancing the capture efficiency and homogeneity of single-layer flow-through trapping microfluidic devices using oblique hydrodynamic streams

Abstract: With the aim to parallelize and monitor biological or biochemical phenomena, trapping and immobilization of objects such as particles, droplets or cells in microfluidic devices has been an intense area of research and engineering so far. Either being passive or active, these microfluidic devices are usually composed of arrays of elementary traps with various levels of sophistication. For a given array, it is important to have an efficient and fast immobilization of the highest number of objects, while optimizi… Show more

“…Microfluidic chips were made using an original design from the team of Jacques Fattaccioli (ENS Paris, IPGG) ( Mesdjian et al, 2021 ). RTV PDMS was mixed at a ratio 1:9, poured in epoxy cast replicates of the microfluidic chips, and cooked until fully polymerized.…”

“… 29 We first developed a two-dimensional depth-averaged computational fluid dynamics - finite element model of the microfluidic chamber with exactly the same approach that the one proposed in. 71 The numerical simulations are performed with COMSOL Multiphysics (version 5.3). We consider a planar and incompressible flow, at steady state, and a Newtonian fluid with a dynamic viscosity of Pa.s.…”
