Journal ArticleDOI
Lab-on-a-chip devices
TL;DR: This review provides easy-to-understand examples and targets the microtechnology/engineering community as well as researchers in the life sciences, and discusses both research and commercial activities.
Journal ArticleDOI
An inexpensive and portable microchip-based platform for integrated RT–PCR and capillary electrophoresis
Govind V. Kaigala,Viet N. Hoang,Alex Stickel,Jana Lauzon,Dammika P. Manage,Linda M. Pilarski,Christopher J. Backhouse +6 more
TL;DR: The novelty of this system lies in the cost-effective integration of microfluidics, optics, and electronics to realize a fully portable and inexpensive system for performing both genetic amplification and analysis - the basis of many medical diagnostics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microfluidics in the “Open Space” for Performing Localized Chemistry on Biological Interfaces
TL;DR: Three classes of microfluidic systems operating in the open space, based on microelectrochemistry, multiphase transport, and hydrodynamic flow confinement of liquids are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
A vertical microfluidic probe.
TL;DR: The versatility of the vMFP is exemplified by patterning fluorescently labeled proteins, inactivation of cells using sodium hypochlorite, and staining living NIH fibroblasts with Cellomics, enabled by the compact design of the head, which provides easy access to the surface, simplifies alignment, and enables processing surfaces having dimensions from the micrometer to the centimeter scale and with large topographical variations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid prototyping of microfluidic devices with a wax printer
TL;DR: A rapid and inexpensive approach for the fabrication of high resolution poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS)-based microfluidic devices that will greatly improve the accessibility of rapid prototyping methods.
