A microfluidic approach to studying the injection flow of concentrated albumin solutions.
Alfredo LanzaroPublished in: SN applied sciences (2021)
A microfluidic "syringe on chip" device mimicking the injection flow of protinaceous drugs has been developed.The velocity field of concentrated BSA solutions through the "syringe on chip" is Newtonian-like.The extensional viscosity of concentrated protein solutions should also be considered when computing injection forces through needles.
