Flow visualization and PIV measurement of a water exchange process in a biosensor container

A water exchange process in a biosensor container was visualized using a laser fluorescence technique and measured using a PIV. The water exchange process needs optimizing in order to shorten the start up period and not to break lipid membrane. The time and volume needed for the completion of the wa...

Summary:A water exchange process in a biosensor container was visualized using a laser fluorescence technique and measured using a PIV. The water exchange process needs optimizing in order to shorten the start up period and not to break lipid membrane. The time and volume needed for the completion of the water exchange process was obtained. The effect of flow rate on the completion volume and fluid motion was discussed.
