Modification of polydimethylsoloxane/water interaction, to promote a spontaneous water flux
through the microchannels, is a crucial task in microfluidic applications. For that reason, in …

Point-of-care testing for health and environmental monitoring sometimes requires the
detection of specific molecules in liquid media to provide a diagnosis in a resource-limited or …

In this research, a simple flame treatment method was explored to generate micro−/nano-
structures on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) micro-patterns. Ethanol soaked paper wipes …

In this study, we have optimized optically transparent polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)
