Article Synopsis
- * Current knowledge about how gas emboli develop and behave at the microscale is limited, but microfluidic networks can mimic the conditions in small blood vessels to study this phenomenon.
- * Findings from this study indicate that narrower channels produce longer bubbles, higher blood concentrations increase air bubble resistance, and certain bifurcation angles enhance the likelihood of gas embolism events, implying that microfluidic experimentation could aid in improving medical guidelines for gas embolism management.
Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), a silicone elastomer, is increasingly being used in health and biomedical fields due to its excellent optical and mechanical properties. Its biocompatibility and resistance to biodegradation led to various applications (e.g.
