Acoustofluidic technologies utilize acoustic waves to manipulate fluids and particles within
fluids, all in a contact-free and biocompatible manner. Over the past decade, acoustofluidic …

There is accumulating evidence that platelets play roles beyond their traditional functions in
thrombosis and hemostasis, eg, in inflammatory processes, infection and cancer, and that …

Usually the dense extracellular structure in fibrotic tissues is described as extracellular
matrix (ECM) or simply as collagen. However, fibrosis is not just fibrosis, which is already …

Upon blood vessel injury, platelets are exposed to adhesive proteins in the vascular wall
and soluble agonists, which initiate platelet activation, leading to formation of hemostatic …

The recent introduction of surface acoustic wave (SAW) technology onto lab-on-a-chip
platforms has opened a new frontier in microfluidics. The advantages provided by such SAW …

Techniques that can dexterously manipulate single particles, cells, and organisms are
invaluable for many applications in biology, chemistry, engineering, and physics. Here, we …

In glaucoma, lowered intraocular pressure (IOP) confers neuroprotection. Elevated IOP
characterizes glaucoma and arises from impaired aqueous humor (AH) outflow. Increased …

When blood vessels are cut, the forces in the bloodstream increase and change character.
The dark side of these forces causes hemorrhage and death. However, von Willebrand …

The discovery of a disintegrin-like and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type 1 motif,
member 13 (ADAMTS13) revolutionized our approach to thrombotic thrombocytopenic …

Fluid manipulations at the microscale and beyond are powerfully enabled through the use of
10–1,000-MHz acoustic waves. A superior alternative in many cases to other microfluidic …
