The Dynamics of Spontaneous Capillary Flow in Confined and Open Microchannels

The Dynamics of Spontaneous Capillary Flow in Confined and Open Microchannels

Capillary microfluidics or capillarics is gaining importance in the biotechnological domain. It combines the advantages of capillary actuation that does not require pumps or syringes to move the fluids, with low-cost fabrication, user-friendliness, portability and telemedicine compatibility. In this...
