Droplet-based microfluidics
Droplet-based microfluidics manipulate discrete volumes of fluids in immiscible phases with low Reynolds number and laminar flow regimes.
Paper-based microfluidics
microfluidic devices that consist of a series of hydrophilic cellulose or nitrocellulose fibers that transport fluid from an inlet through the porous medium to a desired outlet or region of the device, by means of capillary action.
Digital microfluidics
a platform for lab-on-a-chip systems that is based upon the manipulation of microdroplets.
