  • From electrophoresis to dielectrophoresis: designing, fabricating, and evaluating an electroformed ratchet type microfluidic dielectrophoresis device

    Creator:
    Gonzalez, Carlos F.
    Abstract:
    Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is a separation method in which a non-uniform electric field is used to induce a dipole moment in a suspended particle. If the polarization of the particle is greater than that of the suspending medium, the particle will move towards the region of higher field strength (positive DEP);...

  • A photoactivable microfluidic device for heavy metal ion extraction

    Creator:
    Nammoonnoy, Jintana
    Abstract:
    The development of microfluidic devices for heavy metal extraction is presented in this dissertation. Various research areas, covering subjects from photochromic compound syntheses to microchip fabrication techniques are explored to develop microfluidic devices capable of extracting heavy metal ions from drinking water. Through integration of the beneficial characteristics of both...

  • Monolithic sorbents for microscale separations

    Creator:
    Doneanu, Angela
    Abstract:
    Over the last decade, the miniaturization of analytical systems has become an increasingly important and interesting research area. Miniaturized systems offer many advantages, including reduced reagent and sample consumption, shorter analysis times, portability and disposability. This dissertation describes novel approaches in this direction, focusing on two areas: the miniaturization of...

  • Magnetic particles for selective extraction of trace analytes in microfluidic devices

    Creator:
    Tennico, Yolanda H.
    Abstract:
    The development of micro total analysis systems (µTAS), also called “lab-on-a-chip”, or microfluidic analysis systems, is presented in this dissertation. Various research areas, covering subjects from magnetic particles synthesis to novel microchip fabrication techniques, are explored to develop a lab-on-a-chip system capable of performing magnetic bead-based bioassays. These devices are...
