A low-cost paper-based model for on-chip human respiratory system studies (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Rahimi, R., Ochoa, M., Htwe, S. S., Donaldson, A., Zieger, M., Dokmeci, M. R., …Ziaie, B. (2016). A low-cost paper-based model for on-chip human respiratory system studies. In Solid-State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems Workshop, Hilton Head 2016 (206-209). https://doi.org/10.31438/trf.hh2016.56

© 2016 TRF We present the use of hydrophobic paper as an effective semipermeable membrane, ideal for air-liquid interface cell culture applications. The surface properties of the paper is modified through selective CO2 laser-assisted scrubbing to cre... Read More about A low-cost paper-based model for on-chip human respiratory system studies.

A hybrid PDMS/paper passive pump for slow-release/delivery of drugs in chronic dermal wounds (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Rahimi, R., Ochoa, M., Zhou, J., Tamayol, A., Dokmeci, M. R., Khademhosseini, A., …Ziaie, B. (2014). A hybrid PDMS/paper passive pump for slow-release/delivery of drugs in chronic dermal wounds. In Proceedings of 18th International Conference on Miniaturized Systems for Chemistry and Life Sciences, MicroTAS 2014 (2205-2207)

© 14CBMS. In this paper, we present a hybrid PDMS/paper-based passive pump for slow drug delivery in chronic wounds. The pump consists of a PDMS microfluidic network that is irreversibly bonded to the polyethylene-coated (hydrophobic) side of a comme...

A janus-paper PDMS platform for lab-on-a-chip applications (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Rahimi, R., Ochoa, M., Parupudi, T., Donaldson, A., Dokmeci, M. R., Khademhosseini, A., …Ziaie, B. (2014). A janus-paper PDMS platform for lab-on-a-chip applications. In Solid-State Sensors, Actuators, and Microsystems Workshop (119-122). https://doi.org/10.31438/trf.hh2014.34

© 2014TRF. A commercially available Janus paper with one hydrophobic (polyethylene-coated) face and a hygroscopic/hydrophilic one is irreversibly bonded to a PDMS substrate incorporating microfluidic channels via corona discharge surface treatment. T... Read More about A janus-paper PDMS platform for lab-on-a-chip applications.

Label-free separation and sorting of human monocytes and T-cells by electrowetting and dielectrophoresis (2013)
Conference Proceeding
Huang, C. Y., Chiang, M. Y., Fan, S. K., Ghaemmaghami, A. M., & Hsu, W. (2013). Label-free separation and sorting of human monocytes and T-cells by electrowetting and dielectrophoresis. In 8th Annual IEEE International Conference on Nano/Micro Engineered and Molecular Systems (873-876). https://doi.org/10.1109/NEMS.2013.6559863

We report a label-free separation and sorting approach based on electrowetting-on-dielectric (EWOD) and dielectrophoresis (DEP) to manipulate human monocyte (THP-1) and T-cell (Jurkat) lines in droplets without any impact on cell viability. In additi... Read More about Label-free separation and sorting of human monocytes and T-cells by electrowetting and dielectrophoresis.

Separation of dendritic and T cells using electrowetting and dielectrophoresis (2012)
Conference Proceeding
Chen, C. A., Chen, C. H., Ghaemmaghami, A. M., & Fan, S. K. (2012). Separation of dendritic and T cells using electrowetting and dielectrophoresis. In 2012 7th IEEE International Conference on Nano/Micro Engineered and Molecular Systems (NEMS) (183-186). https://doi.org/10.1109/NEMS.2012.6196752

The research of immune cells is fundamental to many biological studies. Dendritic cells have the ability to induce a primary immune response in resting naive T cells. The aim of this work is to separate the activated T cells from dendritic cells on a... Read More about Separation of dendritic and T cells using electrowetting and dielectrophoresis.
