Microfluidic deformability study of an innovative blood analogue fluid based on giant unilamellar vesicles

Blood analogues have long been a topic of interest in biofluid mechanics due to the safety and ethical issues involved in the collection and handling of blood samples. Although the current blood analogue fluids can adequately mimic the rheological properties of blood from a macroscopic point of view...
