Thesis (Ph.D.)--Brown University, 2008.

This dissertation presents experimental, numerical and analytical approaches to understand the transport and microstructure of complex fluids in microfluidic geometries. In the experimental part of this thesis, I present a microfluidic approach to understand the evolution of surfactant mesophases in micro and nano-geometries. A new technique to rapidly the explore the phase diagram of surfactant mesophases using fluorescence microscopy is discussed. The work also explores the role of nano-confinement on the formation of surfactant mesophases using the Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS). I also present a new integrated microfluidic chip/cryo-TEM system to visualize rapid structural transitions induced by mixing micellar solutions of surfactants. The experiments show a new dynamical route where aggregates form long cylindrical vesicles which grow into wavy tubular structures and finally transform into vesicles. In addition to the above studies on surfactant systems, I present two more experimental investigations: (1) microfluidic screening of protein folding/unfolding conformations with and without labeling, and (2) measurements of intrinsic viscosities of polymers using a microfluidics platform. In the theoretical part of this thesis, I present Taylor-dispersion analysis of DNA plugs in a continuous flow nucleic acid amplification microchip. The results show an enhanced dispersion by temperature oscillations. It is also shown that insufficient nucleotides concentrations can lead to a complete depletion of NTP at certain axial locations. Lastly, in the numerical part of this thesis, I present transport modeling of microfluidic bio fuel cells. The analysis predicts optimal conditions for operating membraneless bio fuel cells for the maximum production of electricity and minimum consumption of fuel. I conclude this thesis with my recommendations for future work.
