Abstract:Microfluidic devices are composed of microchannels with a diameter ranging in ten to a few hundred micrometers. Thus, quite small (10-9 to 10-18 litres) amount of liquid can be manipulated by such a precise system. In the past three decades, significant progresses in materials, microfabrication, and various applications have boosted the development of promising functional microfluidic devices. In this review, the recent progresses on novel microfluidic devices with various functions and applications are presen… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
