Повний текст джерелаMicrobubbles and droplets are nanometer to micron size biocompatible particles which are primarily used for drug delivery and contrast imaging. Our aim is to broaden the use of microbubbles from contrast imaging to other applications such as measuring blood pressure. The other goal is to develop in situ contrast agents (phase shift droplets) which can be used for applications such as cancer tumor imaging. Therefore, the focus is on developing and validating the concept using experimental and theoretical methods. Below is an overview of each of the projects performed on droplets and microbubbles.
Phase shift droplets vaporizable by acoustic stimulation offer many advantages over microbubbles as contrast agents due to their higher stability and possibility of smaller sizes. In this study, the acoustic droplet vaporization (ADV) threshold of a suspension of PFP droplets (400-3000nm) was acoustically measured as a function of the excitation frequency by examining the scattered signals, fundamental, sub- and second-harmonic. This work presents the experimental methodology to determine ADV threshold. The threshold increases with frequency: 1.25 MPa at 2.25 MHz, 2.0 MPa at 5 MHz and 2.5 MPa at 10 MHz. The scattered response from droplets was also found to match well with that of independently prepared lipid-coated microbubble suspension in magnitude as well as trends above the threshold value. Additionally, we have employed classical nucleation theory (CNT) to investigate the ADV, specifically the threshold value of the peak negative pressure required for vaporization. The theoretical analysis predicts that the ADV threshold increases with increasing surface tension of the droplet core and frequency of excitation, while it decreases with increasing temperature and droplet size. The predictions are in qualitative agreement with experimental observations.
A technique to measure the ambient pressure using microbubbles was developed. Here we are presenting the results of an in vitro study aimed at developing an ultrasound-aided noninvasive pressure estimation technique using contrast agents--Definity®, a lipid coated microbubble, and an experimental PLA (Poly lactic acid) microbubbles. Scattered responses from these bubbles have been measured in vitro as a function of ambient pressure using a 3.5 MHz acoustic excitation of varying amplitude. At an acoustic pressure of 670 kPa, Definity ® microbubbles showed a linear decrease in subharmonic signal with increasing ambient pressure, registering a 12dB reduction at an overpressure of 120 mm Hg. Ultrasound contrast microbubbles experience widely varying ambient blood pressure in different organs, which can also change due to diseases. Pressure change can alter the material properties of the encapsulation of these microbubbles. Here the characteristic rheological parameters of contrast agent Definity and Targestar are determined by varying the ambient pressure (in a physiologically relevant range 0-200 mmHg). Four different interfacial rheological models are used to characterize the microbubbles. Both the contrast agents show an increase in their interfacial dilatational viscosity and interfacial dilatational elasticity with ambient pressure.
It has been well established that liposomes prepared following a careful multi-step procedure can be made echogenic. Our group as well as others experimentally demonstrated that freeze-drying in the presence of mannitol is a crucial component to ensure echogenicity. Here, we showed that freeze-dried aqueous solutions of excipients such as mannitol, meso-erythritol, glycine, and glucose that assume a crystalline state, when dispersed in water creates bubbles and are echogenic even without any lipids. We also present an explanation for the bubble generation process because of dissolution of mannitol.

Повний текст джерелаENGLISH ABSTRACT: The valveless micropump holds great potential for the biomedical community in applications such as drug delivery systems, blood glucose monitoring and many others. It is also a critical component in many a lab-on-a-chip device, which in turn promises to improve our treatment and diagnosis capabilities for diseases such as diabetes, tuberculosis, and HIV/AIDS. The valveless micropump has attracted attention from researchers on the grounds of its simple design, easy manufacturability and sensitive fluid handling characteristics, which are all important in biomedical applications. The pump consists of a pump chamber with a diffuser and nozzle on opposing sides of the pump chamber. The flow into the diffuser and nozzle is induced by an oscillating piezoelectric disc located on top of the pump chamber. The nozzle and diffuser rectify the flow in one direction, due to different pressure loss coefficients. The design process however is complex. In this study, we investigate the characteristics of a diffuser / nozzle based micropump using detailed computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analyses. Significant parameters are derived using the Buckingham-Pi theorem. In part based on this, the respective shapes of the diffuser and of the nozzle of the micropump are selected for numerical investigation. Hence the influence of the selected parameters on the flow rate of the micropump is studied using three-dimensional transient CFD analyses. Velocity profiles from the CFD simulations are also compared to the Jeffery-Hamel solution for flow in a wedge shaped channel. Significant similarities exist between the data and the predicted Jeffery-Hamel velocity profiles near the exit of the diffuser. Three different diffuser geometries were simulated at three frequencies. The flow rate and direction of flow are shown to be highly sensitive to inlet and outlet diffuser shapes, with the absolute flow rate varying by as much as 200% for the geometrical perturbations studied. Entrance losses at both the diffuser inlet and nozzle inlet appear to dominate the flow resistance at extremely laminar flow conditions with the average Reynolds number of Reave ≈ 500.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die kleplosemikropomp hou groot potensiaal in vir die biomediese gemeenskap in toepassings soos medisyne dosering sisteme, bloed glukose monitering en baie ander. Dit is ook ’n kritiese komponent in “lab-on-chip” sisteme, wat beloof om die behandeling en diagnose van siektes soos suikersiekte, tuberkulose enMIV/VIGS te verbeter. Die kleplose mikropomp het tot dusver die aandag van navorsers geniet as gevolg van sy eenvoudige ontwerp, maklike vervaardiging en sensitiewe vloeistof hantering. Hierdie kenmerke is krities inmenige biomediese toepassings. Die pomp bestaan uit ’n pompkamer met ’n diffusor en ’n mondstuk aan teenoorstaande kante van die pompkamer. Vloei in die diffusor en mondstuk in word geinduseer deur ’n ossillerende piëso-elektiese skyf wat bo-op die pompkamer geleë is. Weens verskillende druk verlies koëffisinëte van die diffusor en diemondstuk word die vloei in een rigting gerig. Die ontwerp-proses is egter kompleks. In hierdie studie word die eienskappe van die diffusor /mondstuk ondersoek deur gebruik temaak van gedetailleerde numeriese vloei-dinamiese analises. Belangrike parameters word afgelei deur gebruik te maak van die Buckingham-Pi teorema. Gedeeltelik gebaseer hierop word die onderskeidelike vorms van die diffusor en die mondstuk van die mikropomp geselekteer vir numeriese ondersoek. Gevlolglik word die invloed van die geselekteerde parameters op die vloei tempo van diemikropomp ondersoek deur gebruik temaak van drie-dimensionele tyd afhanklike numeriese vloei-dinamiese analises. Snelheids profiele van hierdie simulasiesword vergelykmet die Jeffrey-Hamel oplossing vir die vloei in ’n wigvormige kanaal. Daar is oorwegende ooreenkomstighede tussen hierdie data en die voorspelde Jeffrey-Hamel snelheids profiele veral by die uitgang van die diffusor. Drie verskillende diffusor vorms is by drie frekwensies gesimuleer. Daar is bewys dat die vloei tempo en vloeirigting baie sensitief is vir inlaat- en uitlaat diffusor vorms en dat die absolute vloei tempo kan varieermet soveel as 200%vir die geometriese versteuringswat ondersoek is. Inlaat verliese by beide die diffusor inlaat en die mondstuk inlaat, blyk om die vloei weerstand te domineer waar die vloei uiters laminêr ismet ’n gemiddelde Reynolds getal van Regem ≈ 500

Знайти повний текст джерелаMathematical and computational modeling allow for the rationalization of complex phenomenon observed in our reality. Through the careful selection of assumptions, the intractable task of simulating reality can be reduced to the simulation of a practical system whose behavior can be replicated. The development of computational models allow for the full comprehension of the defined system, and the model itself can be used to evaluate the results of thousands of simulate experiments to aid in the rational design process.
Biomedical engineering is the application of engineering principles to the field of medicine and biology. This discipline is composed of numerous diverse subdisciplines that span from genetic engineering to biomechanics. Each of these subdisciplines is concerned with its own complex and seemingly chaotic systems, whose behavior is difficult to characterize. The development and application of computational modeling to rationalize these systems is often necessary in this field and will be the focus of this thesis.
This thesis is centered on the development and application of mathematical and computational modeling in three diverse systems in biomedical engineering. First, computational modeling is employed to investigate the behavior of key proteins in the post-synapse centered around learning and memory. Second, computational modeling is utilized to characterize the drug release rate from implantable drug delivery depots, and produce a tool to aid in the tailoring of the release rate. Finally, computational modeling is utilized to understand the motion of particles through an inertial focusing microfluidics chip and optimize the size selective capture efficiency.
