1. Isolation of Circulating Tumor Cells with Acoustophoresis : Towards a biomarker assay for prostate cancer
Sammanfattning : Microfluidics has emerged as an essential approach in the development of novel technological platforms to detect and isolate rare circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the blood of cancer patients. Micro-scaled fluidic systems offer means to precisely control fluid flow. LÄS MER
2. Antibacterial elastomeric materials for biomedical applications
Sammanfattning : An ageing population in combination with scientific and clinical advancements have led to a steady increase in the use of medical devices. Elastomeric biomaterials – materials displaying rubber-like mechanics – have found widespread applicability in the production of both short- and long-term medical devices. LÄS MER
3. Microfluidics Separation and Analysis of Biological Particles
Sammanfattning : In the last decade, powerful communication and information technology in the form of the mobile phone has been put into the hands of more than 50% of the global population. In stark contrast, a lack of access to medical diagnostic technology with which to diagnose both communicable and non-communicable diseases will mean that many of these people will die of easily treatable conditions.

4. On the Characterization and Generation of Flow Marks on Polymeric Surfaces
Sammanfattning : Polymer-based materials are widely used in the automotive industry for producing vehicle parts, for instance car bumpers, dash boards etc. A common manufacturing process for such components is injection moulding. LÄS MER
5. From Lab to Chip – and back : Polymer microfluidic systems for sample handling in point-of-care diagnostics
Sammanfattning : This thesis contributes to the development of Lab-on-a-Chip systems that enables reliable, rapid medical diagnostics at the point-of-care. These contributions are focused on microfluidic Lab-on-a-Chip systems for sepsis diagnosis, autonomous sample-to-answer tests, and dried blood spot sampling. LÄS MER
