Resumo(s)
The in vitro experimental investigations provide an excellent approach to understand
complex blood flow phenomena involved at a microscopic level. This paper emphasizes
an emerging experimental technique capable to quantify the flow patterns inside
microchannels with high spatial and temporal resolution. This technique, known as
confocal micro-PIV, consists of a spinning disk confocal microscope, high speed camera
and a diode-pumped solid state (DPSS) laser. Velocity profiles of pure water (PW),
physiological saline (PS) and in vitro blood were measured in a 100mm glass square and
rectangular polydimethysiloxane (PDMS) microchannel. The good agreement obtained
between measured and estimated results suggests that this system is a very promising
technique to obtain detail information about micro-scale effects in microchannels by
using both homogeneous and non-homogeneous fluids such as blood flow.
