Flexible PDMS microparticles to mimic RBCs in blood particulate analogue fluids

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) has a wide variety of commercial and industrial applications due to its mechanical and rheological properties in a range similar to the living tissues. In this study, we demonstrate that PDMS can be used to produce deformable microparticles to be integrated in the develop...
