20 Centhand Powered Centrifuge

damental mechanics of an ancient whirligig toy (3300 B.C.E), we design an ultra-low cost (20 cents), light-weight (2 g), human-powered centrifuge that is made out of paper (“paperfuge”). To push the operating limits of this unconventional centrifuge, we present an experimentally-

develop a 20-cent, hand-powered blood centrifuge 10 January 2017, by Kris Newby Credit: Stanford University Here's how to build a whirligig: Thread a loop of twine through two holes in a button. Grab the loop ends, then rhythmically pull. As the twine coils and uncoils, the button spins at a dizzying speed. Now, using the same mechanical ...

Jan 10, 2017 A hand-powered centrifuge made of two paper discs, string and wooden handles is shown to achieve rotational speeds of 125,000 r.p.m., separate pure plasma from whole blood in less than 1.5 minutes ...

Jan 10, 2017 Stanford bioengineers develop a 20-cent, hand-powered blood centrifuge. Inspired by a whirligig toy, Stanford bioengineering professor Manu Prakash, PhD, and his students have designed a centrifuge from paper, twine and plastic that can separate blood plasma from red cells in 1.5 minutes, no electricity required.

Jan 10, 2017 This 20-cent paper pinwheel could help diagnose diseases in developing countries Stanford bioengineers have developed an ultra-low-cost, human-powered blood centrifuge. With rotational speeds of up to 125,000 revolutions per minute, the device separates blood plasma from red cells in 1.5 minutes, no electricity required.
