The rapid development of wireless power transfer (WPT) technology has provided new avenues for supplying continuous and stable power to capsule robots. In this article, we propose a two-dimensional omnidirectional wireless power transfer (OWPT) system, which enables power to be transmitted effectively in multiple spatial directions. This system features a three-dimensional transmitting structure with a Helmholtz coil and saddle coil pairs, combined with a one-dimensional receiving structure.

Surface modification is essential in microfluidic applications due to the inherent hydrophobicity of polymers, which can lead to biofouling and reagent denaturation. Despite the development, challenges such as hydrophobic molecule absorption and limitations in scaling are still present. Off-stoichiometry thiol-ene (OSTE) materials have emerged as a promising alternative, offering advantages like rapid prototyping, minimal hydrophobic absorption, and customizable surface chemistries.

Methods for Rapid Characterization of Tunable Microbubble Formulations.

Bioengineering (Basel)

December 2024

Department of Biomedical Engineering, Boston University, Boston, MA 02215, USA.

To optimize microbubble formulations for clinical applications, the size distribution, concentration, and acoustic intensity must be rapidly measurable to allow for the successful iteration of microbubble design. In this paper, a comprehensive method was developed to compare microbubble formulations with different lipid shell compositions using optical and acoustic methods of measurement to collect the size distribution, concentration, and mean scattering intensity. An open-source ImageJ macro code was modified for the selective counting and sizing of brightfield microbubble images.
