👉 The SM Fluid, also known as SmFusion or SmF, is a synthetic fluid used in the field of microfluidics and lab-on-a-chip technologies, particularly for applications involving blood analysis and diagnostics. It is a stable, viscous fluid that combines the properties of glycerol and polyethylene glycol (PEG), providing a low-viscosity, non-Newtonian fluid that can be easily manipulated through microchannels. This fluid is crucial for maintaining cell viability and function in diagnostic assays, as it mimics the natural environment of blood cells. Its unique rheological properties allow for precise control over fluid flow, enabling efficient mixing, separation, and reaction processes at the microscale, making it indispensable in point-of-care testing and personalized medicine.
