Flow control is of paramount importance for sample-to-answer automated Lab-on-a-Chip systems. Centrifugal microfluidics offers the benefit that the force field can be accurately controlled over ...

Autonomous control of serial dilution. (A) System-level diagram of the autonomous dilution ladder. A 4-bit FSM controls routing of peristaltic waveforms from the pump oscillator to the appropriate ...

Bukert Life Science releases Microfluidic valves with Twin Power technology, now available in three sizes - 10mm, 16mm, and 22mm. Twin Power technology combines the industry-proven rocker principle ...

Swapping delicate microscopic flow valves for a universal modular valve system has enabled A*STAR researchers to dramatically decrease the cost and complexity of microfluidic diagnostic chips — ...

Compressible fluid flow through control valves will inevitably cause some form of flow-induced vibration in the fluid system. Identifying the type and cause of the vibration requires detective work.

A new pressure-relief valve that protects sensitive components in fluidic systems against high-pressure peaks, and also ...

At the heart of modern electronics are transistors, which act like valves to direct the flow of electrons. Now researchers at the University of California at Berkeley have created the first ...
