 Bio-fluidics research is an increasingly active area. Scientists are seeking a better understanding of biological flows. In addition, knowledge of such flows is required for the improvement of therapeutic medical procedures. Specific areas include the optimisation of artificial hearts, heart-valve function and flows in the lungs and circulatory system.
Application areas include:
- Artificial hearts
- Heart-valve function
- Blood flows
- Medicine inhalers
- Cell sorting
- Cell tissue transport
- Micro fluidics
- Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS)
- Microarrays
- Lab-on-a-chip fluidics
