Automated R2R Manufacturing of Microfluidic Artificial Lungs

A roll-to-roll system to manufacture rolled microfluidic artificial lungs. These are the first microfluidic artificial lungs that were manufactured using an automated system. The roll-to-roll system incorporates a heavily-modified laser engraver, and two actuated cold-plasma nozzles.

3D-Printed Microfluidic Artificial Lungs

3D-Printed Microfluidic Artificial Lungs Designed and manufactured various 3D-printed microfluidic artificial lungs. Published Abstract: https://asaio.org/conference/program/2023/P44.cgi Purpose: Current hollow-fiber oxygenators used in Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation have suboptimal gas exchange performance and hemocompatibility. Microfluidic artificial lungs (µALs) promise smaller feature sizes, improving…
