Abstract: Here, we introduce the novel concept of 'soft shuttle' for transportation, manipulation and diffusion studies of small liquid droplets using electrowetting on dielectric mechanism. This method enables manipulation of droplets several times smaller than the… read more here.

Abstract: Here, we describe the magnetic actuation of soft shuttles for open-top microfluidic applications. The system is comprised of two immiscible liquids, including glycerol as the soft shuttle and a suspension of iron powder in sucrose… read more here.
