Flow Anisotropy due to Thread-Like Nanoparticle Agglomerations in Dilute Ferrofluids

Improved knowledge of the magnetic field dependent flow properties of nanoparticle-based magnetic fluids is critical to the design of biomedical applications, including drug delivery and cell sorting. To probe the rheology of ferrofluid on a sub-millimeter scale, we examine the paths of 550 μm diame...
