Blood flow in microchannels manufactured by a low cost technique: xurography
Pinto, Elmano; Taboada, B.; Faustino, V.; Cidre, Diana; Rodrigues, Raquel Oliveira; Miranda, João Mário; Garcia, Valdemar; Dias, Ricardo P.; Lima, R.The xurography is a technique that has been used to make molds to produce microchannels. In contrast to soft lithography [1, 2], xurography uses equipments and materials commonly used in the printing industry, such as cutting plotters, vinyl and other materials. The main advantage of this technique is to fabricate microchannels at a reduced cost [3, 4]. The Fahraeus-Lindqvist effect is a well know phenomenon t...
Separation and deformation of red blood cells in PDMS microchannels
Rodrigues, Raquel Oliveira; Faustino, V.; Pinho, Diana; Pinto, Elmano; Cidre, Diana; Yaginuma, Tomoko; Taboada, B.; Bento, David; Lima, R.Over the years, several experimental techniques were performed in in vitro environments, in an attempt to understand the flow behaviour of blood in microcirculation. Several of these studies were performed in glass capillaries, and have produced significant results with respect to rheological properties of blood [1, 2]. Another way to perform in vitro blood studies is to use microchannels fabricated by soft- li...
