Abstract

On page 4521, J. Fu and co-workers develop a technology termed Vacuum-Pressure Accelerated Movement (V-PAM) capable of significantly enhancing transport of viscous biofluids (such as hydrogels and unprocessed whole blood) in complex microfluidic environments containing dead-end channels and closed chambers. The cover image shows the rapid filling of dyed solutions in a leaf venation microfluidic network using the V-PAM technology.
