Acoustofluidic technologies utilize acoustic waves to manipulate fluids and particles within
fluids, all in a contact-free and biocompatible manner. Over the past decade, acoustofluidic …

Acoustophoresis is getting more attention as an effective and gentle non-contact method of
manipulating cells and particles in microfluidic systems. A key to a successful assembly of …

In this paper, Part 7 of the thematic tutorial series “Acoustofluidics–exploiting ultrasonic
standing waves, forces and acoustic streaming in microfluidic systems for cell and particle …

The ability to physically manipulate specific cells is critical for the fields of biomedicine,
synthetic biology, and living materials. Ultrasound has the ability to manipulate cells with …

We present a numerical study of the transient acoustophoretic motion of microparticles
suspended in a liquid-filled microchannel and driven by the acoustic forces arising from an …

We calculate the acoustic radiation force from an ultrasound wave on a compressible,
spherical particle suspended in a viscous fluid. Using Prandtl-Schlichting boundary-layer …

Circulating tumor cells (CTC) are shed in peripheral blood at advanced metastatic stages of
solid cancers. Surface-marker-based detection of CTC predicts recurrence and survival in …

In the second part of the thematic tutorial series “Acoustofluidics–exploiting ultrasonic
standing waves forces and acoustic streaming in microfluidic systems for cell and particle …

Mechanical phenoty** of single cells is an emerging tool for cell classification, enabling
assessment of effective parameters relating to cells' interior molecular content and structure …

We present a theoretical analysis of the acoustic radiation force on a single small spherical
particle, either a thermoviscous fluid droplet or a thermoelastic solid particle, suspended in a …
