Soft Lithography in Biology and Biochemistry
TL;DR: Soft lithography offers the ability to control the molecular structure of surfaces and to pattern the complex molecules relevant to biology, to fabricate channel structures appropriate for microfluidics, and topattern and manipulate cells.
Molecular self-assembly and nanochemistry: A chemical strategy for the synthesis of nanostructures
TL;DR: In this article, self-assembly is defined as the spontaneous association of molecules under equilibrium conditions into stable, structurally well-defined aggregates joined by noncovalent bonds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patterned Paper as a Platform for Inexpensive, Low‐Volume, Portable Bioassays
TL;DR: This communication describes a simple method for patterning paper to create well-defined, millimeter-sized channels, comprising hydrophilic paper bounded by hydrophobic polymer, that will become the basis for low-cost, portable, and technically simple multiplexed bioassays.
Journal ArticleDOI
Poly(dimethylsiloxane) as a material for fabricating microfluidic devices.
TL;DR: This Account summarizes techniques for fabrication and applications in biomedicine of microfluidic devices fabricated in poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS).
Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnostics for the Developing World: Microfluidic Paper-Based Analytical Devices
TL;DR: Microfluidic paper-based analytical devices are a new class of point-of-care diagnostic devices that are inexpensive, easy to use, and designed specifically for use in developing countries.
