Title:
APPARATUS FOR OUTER WALL FOCUSING FOR HIGH VOLUME FRACTION PARTICLE MICROFILTRATION AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURE THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2022119893
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide an apparatus for microfiltration and a scalable method for manufacture of an inertial microfluidic device for such a microfiltration apparatus.SOLUTION: An apparatus for microfiltration includes one or more inertial microfluidic devices, each including a plurality of spirals of a microfluidic channel. At least one of the inertial microfluidic devices is configured to utilize outer wall focusing for high volume fraction microfiltration of particles. In an embodiment, multiple inertial microfluidic devices are connected in sequence for combined inner wall and outer wall focusing. A scalable method for manufacture of the inertial microfluidic device includes micromachining on a polycarbonate-based substrate a rectangular spiral microchannel having one or more input channels and a plurality of output channels configured to utilize high volume fraction outer wall focusing for microfiltration of particles.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
