| 500 ## - GENERAL NOTE | |
| General note | This research work focuses on the development of high-performance capillary pumps<br/>for low-cost point-of-care diagnostic devices using printed circuit board (PCB) technology.<br/>The study explores the design and fabrication of capillary pumps using PCBs and<br/>polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) to create microfluidic devices. Two different designs of PCBbased micropumps with hexagonal-shaped micropillars are proposed, offering different<br/>vertical distances between rows to achieve varying flow rates and fluid volumes. The<br/>fabrication process involves designing the PCB microchannel, cutting the PCB fiber sheet,<br/>creating silicon molds, pouring and curing PDMS, bonding the PDMS replicas to a substrate,<br/>and testing the micropump's performance. Experimental setups are established to measure the<br/>flow rate and pressure drop of different glycerin ratios in the microfluidic system. The results<br/>indicate that as the glycerin content increases, the flow rate decreases due to increased fluid<br/>viscosity. Design 1 consistently exhibits higher flow rates than Design 2 due to the smaller<br/>gap distance between micropillars. The findings demonstrate the effectiveness of PCB-based<br/>capillary pumps in controlling fluid flow and offer valuable insights for the development of<br/>low-cost point-of-care diagnostic devices. The design of micropumps for studying blood flow<br/>at low flow rates offers significant advantages in investigating blood-related conditions. The<br/>precise control overflow rates, realistic simulations, integration with microfluidic systems,<br/>drug delivery studies, and reduced sample requirements all contribute to a deeper<br/>understanding of blood disorders and the development of personalized treatment approaches. |
