The advantages of ferrofluids in microfluidic lab-on-a-chip applications include remote control of the fluid flow within the chips, e.g., mixing of the species using an external uniform magnetic field. Hence, three-stream flow systems, consisting of a ferrofluid core clad by two streams of diamagnet...
