Extensional flow of hyaluronic acid solutions in an optimized microfluidic cross-slot device

We utilize a recently developed microfluidic device, the Optimized Shape Crossslot Extensional Rheometer (OSCER), to study the elongational flow behavior and rheological properties of hyaluronic acid (HA) solutions representative of the synovial fluid (SF) found in the knee joint. The OSCER geometry...
