Microfluidic Features in Fluid Mechanics for Bioengineering Applications

  1. Subhadeep Mukhopadhyay

Abstract

In this work, a single SU-8 based glass microfluidic device is fabricated by the mask less lithography and indirect bonding technique. The sealing is performed by author during the hard baking in maskless lithography. Dyed water is prepared as working liquid in this work. A CMOS camera catching 25 frames per second with a corresponding time-scale resolution of 0.04 second is used by the author to record the surface-driven capillary flow of dyed water. In future, this experimental work may be useful to manipulate the working liquid inside any SU-8 based laboratory-on-a-chip system for bioengineering applications, for example, filtration of blood cells from human whole blood.
