Microfluidic-chip based hydrodynamic filtration is one of the passive sorting techniques that can separate cell or particle suspensions into subpopulations of different sizes. As the branch channels and side channels play an important role in maintaining particle focusing, their rational design is necessary for highly efficient sorting. A model framework involving multiple side and multiple branch channels has been developed by extending the analytical analysis of three-dimensional laminar flow in channel networks, which was previously validated by comparison with numerical simulations.

Background: To accurately measure permeability of compounds in the intestine, there is a need for preclinical in vitro models that accurately represent the specificity, integrity and complexity of the human small intestinal barrier. Intestine-on-chip systems hold considerable promise as testing platforms, but several characteristics still require optimization and further development.
Methods: An established intestine-on-chip model for tissue explants was adopted for intestinal cell monolayer culture.

An ice slurry or an emulsion of a phase change material (PCM) is a multiphase working fluid from the so-called Latent Functional Thermal Fluid (LFTF) group. LFTF is a fluid that uses, in addition to specific heat, the specific enthalpy of the phase change of its components to transfer heat. Another fluid type has joined the LFTF group: a slurry of encapsulated phase change material (PCM).

Anthropogenic emissions of non-CO greenhouse gases, such as low-concentration coal mine methane (cCH < 30 vol%), have a significant impact on global warming. The main component of coal mine methane is methane (CH), which is both a greenhouse gas and a high-quality clean energy gas. To study the combustion and heat transfer reactions of low-concentration coal mine methane in a catalytic oxidation device, a numerical simulation approach was employed to establish a model of the catalytic oxidation device that includes periodic boundary conditions, methane combustion mechanisms, and turbulent-laminar flow characteristics.

Cilia in the fallopian tubes (CFT) play an important role in female infertility, but have not been explored comprehensively. This review reveals the detection techniques for CFT function and morphology, and the related analysis of female infertility and other gynaecological disorders. CFT differentiate from progenitor cells, and develop into primary cilia and motile cilia.
