This chip separates white blood cells, which are of primary interest for the detection of autoimmune disorders, from the rest of blood. The QC system acquires images of flow through the chip and reports the accuracy of blood separation through image processing techniques. The team improved mechanical design and image processing components of this system to reduce manufacturing cost and processing time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BD Biosciences Engineering, 2017-18 Liaison(s): Atul Madhusudan, Alireza Salmanzadeh Ph.D., Ruth Sung &#8217;17 Advisor(s): Leah Mendelson Students(s): Ramita Kondepudi (TL-F), [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[164],"tags":[209],"class_list":["post-12155","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-engineering","tag-bd-biosciences"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12155","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12155"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12155\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12155"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12155"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12155"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
