Abstract:
Abstract Microfluidic devices have the potential to automate and miniaturize biological experiments, but open-source sharing of device designs has lagged behind sharing of other resources such as software. Synthetic biologists have used microfluidics for DNA assembly, cell-free expression, and cell culture, but a combination of expense, device complexity, and reliance on custom set-ups hampers their widespread adoption. We present Metafluidics, an open-source, community-driven repository that hosts digital design files, assembly specifications, and open-source software to enable users to build

Microfluidics is a technique that uses channels of tiny sizes to process small amounts of fluid, which can be used in biochemical detection, information technology, and other fields.

The lymphatic system has three primary roles: transporting lipids, transporting immune cells, and maintaining fluid balance. Each one of these roles are influenced by the presence of flow. Inflammation increases lymph flow, lipid uptake is enhanced by flow, cancer cell migration increases in the presence of flow, and lymphatic permeability and lymphatic contractility respond to changes in flow. Flow is very important to lymphatic function, and yet, there are no in vitro models that incorporate both luminal (flow along cell lumen) and transmural (flow through cell lumina) flow for lymphatics.

Abstract:
Analytical chemistry is the one of the most importance not only to all branches of chemistry but also to all the biological sciences, to engineering, and, more recently, medicine, public health, food, environment and the supply of energy in all forms. Therefore, the developments of novel detection methods play an important role to obtain both qualitative analysis and quantification of the chemical or biomolecule components of natural and artificial materials. This work has been separated into 3 groups for finishing the novelty in detection methods. First, novel nanomaterials-based or nanocompo
