摘　　要：The transport of spherical particles in microchannel flow has been extensively studied owing to its relevance to efficient particle control, particularly in high-throughput cytometry and in single-cell detection and analysis. Despite significant advances in the field of inertial microfluidics,however, there remains a need for a deeper understanding of the migration of nonspherical particles in non-Newtonian fluids, given the diverse shapes of particles found in biological and industrial contexts. In this review, the transport behaviors of both spherical and non-spherical particles in both Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids are examined. The current state of knowledge, challenges, and potential opportunities in inertial microfluidics are analyzed, with a focus on the underlying physical mechanisms and the development of novel channel designs. The findings presented here will enhance our understanding of the accumulation behavior of rigid particles in non-Newtonian fluid channel flow and may provide insights into efficient particle focusing and control in microfluidic devices.
