Dielectrophoretic separation/classification/focusing of microparticles using electrified lab-on-a-disc platforms.

Background: Separation, classification, and focusing of microparticles are essential issues in microfluidic devices that can be implemented in two categories: using labeling and label-free methods. Label-free methods differentiate microparticles based on their inherent properties, including size, density, shape, electrical conductivity/permittivity, and magnetic susceptibility. Dielectrophoresis is an advantageous label-free technique for this objective.

Investigating the Performance of the Multi-Lobed Leaf-Shaped Oscillatory Obstacles in Micromixers Using Bulk Acoustic Waves (BAW): Mixing and Chemical Reaction.

Proper mixing in microfluidic devices has been a concern since the early development stages. Acoustic micromixers (active micromixers) attract significant attention due to their high efficiency and ease of implementation. Finding the optimal geometries, structures, and characteristics of acoustic micromixers is still a challenging issue.

Electrified lab on disc systems: A comprehensive review on electrokinetic applications.

Many advanced microfluidic Lab-on-disc (LOD) devices require an on-board power supply for powering active components. LODs with an on-board electrical power supply are called electrified-LODs (eLODs) and are the subject of the present review. This survey comprises two main parts.

Adsorption isotherm models: A comprehensive and systematic review (2010-2020).

Among numerous methods developed in purification and separation industries, the adsorption process has received considerable attention due to its inexpensive, facile, and eco-friendly nature. The importance of the adsorption process causes extraordinary endeavors for modeling the adsorption isotherms during the years; thus, myriads of research have been conducted and many reviews have been published. In this paper, we have attempted to gather the most widely used adsorption isotherms and their related definitions, along with examples of correlated work of the recent decade.
