uFluidix - Spiral Microfluidic Device

Spiral Microfluidic devices are usually a single spiralling channel that branches at the outside end of the channels. Flow normally enters from the center of the spiral and exits from the outside. Spiral channels are mainly used for the separation and sorting of particles based on inertia. Usually, different sizes, weights or shapes of particles can be separated using this strategy. It should be noted that the number of branches at the exist could be anywhere between 2-10, depending on the application.
