Abstract: A system for delivering an injection of a fluid into a void within a subject is disclosed. A barrel extends from a first end to a second end and forms a lumen extending from the first end to the second end. A plug and a floating seal are arranged within the lumen. A hollow needle includes a distal end with an opening for fluid to flow from the lumen. The plug, the barrel and the floating seal include material and dimensions selected based on a threshold flowrate for a fluid arranged within the lumen to: overcome a force opposed to a force being applied to the fluid in the lumen to move the floating seal and the hollow needle into a tissue of the subject, and succumb to the opposing force to displace the fluid through the opening into the void.

Abstract: A microfluidic device of the present invention is connected to at least an inlet to permit at least a stream of fluid with a desired fluid flow rate and a stable laminar flow. A body with at least a non-deformable portion and a deformable portion is connected to the inlet. At least a microconduit of substantially reduced length and cross-section, integrally formed in said non-deformable and deformable portions, and connected to the inlet. The stable laminar flow of fluid transiting through the microconduit is disrupted, resulting in a turbulent flow of the fluid, with a vibration of the deformable portion, when the fluid flow rate crosses a threshold value. The turbulent flow of the fluid undergoes an enhanced mixing, in a reduced period of time. At least an outlet is connected to microconduit to collect the mixed fluid. A network of microfluidic devices are arranged to perform mixing of fluids.
