| Abstract | A two-dimensional or transverse acoustic trapping and its capability to noninvasively manipulate micrometersized particles with focused sound beams were experimentally demonstrated in our previous work. To apply this technique, as in optical tweezers, for studying mechanical properties of and interactions among biological particles such as cells, the trapping forces must be calibrated against known forces, i.e., viscous drag forces exerted by fluid flows. The trapping forces and the trap stiffness were measured under various conditions and the results were reported in this paper. In the current experimental arrangement, because the trapped particles were positioned against an acoustically transparent mylar membrane, the ultrasound beam intensity distribution near the membrane must be carefully considered. The total intensity field (the sum of incident and scattering intensity fields) around the droplet was thus computed by finite element analysis (FEA) with the membrane included, and it was then used in the ray acoustics model to calculate the trapping forces. The membrane effect on trapping forces was discussed by comparing effective beam widths with and without the membrane. The FEA results found that the broader beam width, caused by the scattered beams from the neighboring membrane and the droplet, resulted in the lower intensity, or smaller force, on the droplet. The experimental results showed that the measured forces were as high as 64 nN. The trap stiffness, approximated as a linear spring, was estimated by linear regressions and found to be 1.3 to 4.4 nN/μm, which was on a larger scale than that of optical trapping estimated for red blood cells, a few tenths of piconewtons/nanometer. The experimental and theoretical results were in good agreement. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
