Passive pumping mechanisms are vital for today’s experiment and studies in the microfludics fields. This Paper is a review paper about the passive pumping mechanism (as known as PPM) with variety types of driven force used in microfludics experiment. The goal of such article was to review the already existed PPM. In doing so, the paper summed up different types of PPM, explained their working principles and showed some of applications of PPM. The history, development and the limitation were also discussed in the paper.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
