Tapered angle microfluidic device for cell separation using hydrodynamic principle
Metastasis is responsible for 90% of all cancer-related fatalities. CTCs are difficult to detect due to their rarity. Currently, the devices that aid in the detection of CTCs have limitations, such as a high price, complex apparatus, or low sample purity. Consequently, the purpose of this research i...

Metastasis is responsible for 90% of all cancer-related fatalities. CTCs are difficult to detect due to their rarity. Currently, the devices that aid in the detection of CTCs have limitations, such as a high price, complex apparatus, or low sample purity. Consequently, the purpose of this research is to construct and enhance a microfluidic device with a tapered angle. This device aims to outperform conventional microfluidic devices in terms of cost, sample purity, and apparatus. Using the finite element simulation software COMSOL Multiphysics, two studies are conducted, the first of which examines the effect of taper angle on particle separation and the second of which examines the effect of flow rate on particle separation. This design enables particle separation based on hydrodynamic theory and the sedimentation process.
