Funded Activity Summary
Thin film microfluidic systems facility. This project aims to establish a major research facility centred on thin film microfluidics. The participating organisations have developed the vortex fluidic device as a novel microfluidic platform, and key equipment is required to establish a unique world-leading facility. The recently developed, scalable and continuous-flow vortex fluidic device has a growing number of applications, with patents covering areas such as protein folding, nano-carbon processing, enhancing enzymatic reactions, liposome fabrication and manipulation, fluorescent polymers and biodiesel generation. The equipment will further develop the technology for incorporating field effects and novel real-time monitoring into the processing for rapid optimisation. It will enhance a diverse variety of applications in areas including energy production, controlling chemical reactivity and selectivity, protein folding and purification, enhancing enzymatic reactions and drug delivery and materials processing.Funded Activity Details
