A MICROFLUIDICS APPROACH TOWARDS THE INVESTIGATION OF FREE HEME EFFECTS ON SICKLE CELL HEMOGLOBIN POLYMERIZATION
(2012-05)Sickle cell hemoglobin (HbS) polymerization is considered to be the primary pathogenic event in sickle cell anemia. In this work we aim at fabricating an integrated microfluidic device with a localized microheater for the ... -
Microfluidic and Paper-Based Devices for the Analysis of Red Blood Cells: Improving the Quality and Accessibility of Diagnosis, Monitoring and Treatment for Sickle Cell Disease
(2017-05-24)Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a common inherited blood disorder which gives rise to life-long health problems. Technologies capable of sensitive and specific early diagnosis of SCD as well as accurate quantification of HbS ...
