Deformation and dynamics of erythrocytes govern their traversal through microfluidic devices with a deterministic lateral displacement architecture
Wei Chien, Zunmin Zhang, Gerhard Gompper +1
Deterministic lateral displacement (DLD) microfluidic devices promise versatile and precise processing of biological samples. However, this prospect has been realized so far only f…

Sharp-edged geometric obstacles in microfluidics promote deformability-based sorting of cells
Zunmin Zhang, Wei Chien, Ewan Henry +2
Sorting cells based on their intrinsic properties is a highly desirable objective, since changes in cell deformability are often associated with various stress conditions and disea…

Sorting of particles suspended in whole blood
Stefan H. Holm, Zunmin Zhang, Jason P. Beech +3
An important step in diagnostics is the isolation of specific cells and microorganisms of interest from blood. Since such bioparticles are often present at very low concentrations,…
