The ability to manipulate and focus particles within microscale fluidic environments is crucial to advancing biological, chemical, and medical research. Precise and high-throughput particle focusing is an essential prerequisite for various applications, including cell counting, biomolecular detection, sample sorting, and enhancement of biosensor functionalities. Active and sheath-assisted focusing techniques offer accuracy but necessitate the introduction of external energy fields or additional sheath flows. In contrast, passive focusing methods exploit the inherent fluid dynamics in achieving high-throughput focusing without external actuation. This review analyzes the latest developments in strategies of sheathless inertial focusing, emphasizing inertial and elasto-inertial microfluidic focusing techniques from the channel structure classifications. These methodologies will serve as pivotal benchmarks for the broader application of microfluidic focusing technologies in biological sample manipulation. Then, prospects for future development are also predicted. This paper will assist in the understanding of the design of microfluidic particle focusing devices.

Atmospheric particulate matter has complex components and a wide range of sources. It not only frequently occurs in bad weather such as haze, but also aggravates environmental pollution as a carrier of pollutants, posing a potential threat to human health. In order to identify its composition characteristics and sort particles with different particle sizes, this study designed a particle sorting structure based on microfluidic technology, in order to provide scientific guidance for solving the problem of atmospheric particulate matter pollution. Based on the principle of microfluidic particle optical sorting, a particle sorting structure of microfluidic technology was designed to achieve continuous sorting of particles with different particle sizes. The results show that the use of optical radiation force and fluid resistance can effectively achieve the separation of particles with different particle sizes, so as to effectively sort the atmospheric particles according to the particle size.
