Modeling and development of fabrication method for embedding membrane based microvalve in bulk microfluidic device

Creator:

Abhinkar, Bindiya S.

Abstract:

PDMS membrane-based microvalves are becoming increasingly more important for the control of fluid flow within MECS applications such as microreactors used to synthesize nanoparticles and biological macromolecules. The motivation for pursuing PDMS membrane-based microvalves is for implementing a plug flow microreactor to simulate slug flow yielding a narrower residence time...
