4. 2. Acoustic Standing Wave Manipulation of Particles and Cells in Microfluidic Chips

   Author : Andreas Lenshof; Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; acoustic particle manipulation; separation; ultrasound; cell handling; particle handling; lab on a chip; Microsystem technology; microfluidics; standing waves;

   Abstract : The rise of MEMS and µTAS techniques has created a whole new family of microfluidic devices for a wide range of chemical and biomedical analyses to be performed on small Lab-on-a-chip platforms. The operations often include small samples of particle or cell suspensions on which separation, mixing, trapping or sorting is performed. READ MORE

5. 3. Multidimensional Ultrasonic Standing Wave Manipulation in Microfluidic Chips

   Author : Otto Manneberg; Hans M. Hertz; Martin Wiklund; Jürg Dual; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biological physics; Biologisk fysik;

   Abstract : The use of ultrasonic standing waves for contactless manipulation of microparticles in microfluidic systems is a field with potential to become a new standard tool in lab-on-chip systems. Compared to other contactless manipulation methods ultrasonic standing wave manipulation shows promises of gentle cell handling, low cost, and precise temperature control. READ MORE

6. 4. Neural control of standing posture

   Author : Craig Tokuno; Andrew Cresswell; Alf Thorstensson; Marc Carpenter; Thomas Sinkjær; Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : Medicin Teknik; Medicine Technology; Posture; motor cortex; electromyography; kinematics; H-reflex; pre-synaptic inhibition; transcranial magnetic stimulation;

   Abstract : When humans are asked to stand normally, they are not completely motionless. Rather, small amounts of body movement, termed postural sway, can be observed. Although the postural sway of standing has been well described, the manner in which this sway is neurally controlled and its influence in tasks involving postural re-stabilization are not known.
