Dean flow focusing and separation of small microspheres within a narrow size range.
Johnston, Ian; McDonnell, M.B.; Tan, Christabel; McCluskey, Daniel; Davies, Matthew; Tracey, M.C. (2014-09-01)Rapid, selective particle separation and concentration within the bacterial size range (1–3 μm) in clinical or environmental samples promises significant improvements in detection of pathogenic microorganisms in areas ... -
Electrowetting-Based Digital Microfluidics Platform for Automated Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay
Dimov, Nikolay; McDonnell, M.B.; Munro, Ian; McCluskey, Daniel; Johnston, Ian; Tan, Christabel; Coudron, Loic (2020-02-23)Electrowetting is the effect by which the contact angle of a droplet exposed to a surface charge is modified. Electrowetting-on-dielectric (EWOD) exploits the dielectric properties of thin insulator films to enhance the ... -
Fully integrated digital microfluidics platform for automated immunoassay; a versatile tool for rapid, specific detection of a wide range of pathogens
Coudron, Loic; McDonnell, M.B.; Munro, Ian; McCluskey, Daniel; Johnston, Ian; Tan, Christabel; Tracey, Mark (2019-03-01)With the tangible threat posed by the release of chemical and biological warfare (CBW) agents, detection of airborne pathogens is a critical military and security concern. Recent air sampling techniques developed for ... -
Multi-Channel Patterning of Antibodies on a Sensor Surface for Simultaneous Detection of Pathogens and Toxins
Davies, M. J.; McDonnell, M.B.; Johnston, I.D.; Perkins, E.A.; Tracey, M.C. (2010)This poster describes the development of a micro-engineered, PDMS/PMMA composite patterning device for the flow immobilisation of up to 16 separate antibody stripes on a single sensor chip surface. Results for a preliminary ... -
New Strategies towards the Next Generation of Personal Worn Bio Detector
Coudron, Loic; Foat, T.; Sellors, W.; Walker, M.; Rachwal, P.; Jones, J.; Despeyroux, D.; McDonnell, M.B.; McCluskey, Daniel; Munro, Ian; Johnston, Ian; Tan, Christabel; Tracey, Mark (2016-06-20)Although personal samplers have been used for many years in fields such as occupational hygiene to measure individual exposure to toxic materials [1], they are still not widely used by the military and civil defence agencies ... -
Protein droplet actuation on superhydrophobic surfaces: A new approach toward anti-biofouling electrowetting systems
Abdul Latip, Eli Nadia; Coudron, Loic; McDonnell, M.B.; Johnston, Ian; McCluskey, Daniel; Day, Rodney; Tracey, Mark (2017-10-25)Among Lab-on-a-chip techniques, Digital microfluidics (DMF), allowing the precise actuation of discrete droplets, is a highly promising, flexible, biochemical assay platform for biomedical and bio-detection applications. ...
