Fig. 9: Numerical investigation of fluid flow rate change during cell entry process and the effect of fluid flow rate on cells’ entry time.

From: Experimental measurement and numerical modeling of deformation behavior of breast cancer cells passing through constricted microfluidic channels

Fig. 9

a Change of the flow rate while the cell entering the channel that was calculated numerically indicates flow rate change dependency to the cell size. b The effect of fluid flow rate on the cell entry time of various cell sizes in the three different constricted channels was investigated numerically
