Detection of red blood cell surface antigens by probe-triggered cell collision and flow retardation in an autonomous microfluidic system
Abstract Microfluidic devices exploit combined physical, chemical and biological phenomena that could be unique in the sub-millimeter dimensions. The current goal of development of Point-of-Care (POC) medical devices is to extract the biomedical information from the blood. We examined the characteri...

Abstract Microfluidic devices exploit combined physical, chemical and biological phenomena that could be unique in the sub-millimeter dimensions.
