Multidisciplinary Microfluidic and Nanofluidic Lab-on-a-Chip:
Principles and Applications provides chemists, biophysicists,
engineers, life scientists, biotechnologists, and pharmaceutical
scientists with the principles behind the design, manufacture, and
testing of life sciences microfluidic systems. This book serves as
a reference for technologies and applications in multidisciplinary
areas, with an emphasis on quickly developing or new emerging
areas, including digital microfluidics, nanofluidics, papers-based
microfluidics, and cell biology. The book offers practical guidance
on how to design, analyze, fabricate, and test microfluidic devices
and systems for a wide variety of applications including
separations, disease detection, cellular analysis, DNA analysis,
proteomics, and drug delivery. Calculations, solved problems, data
tables, and design rules are provided to help researchers
understand microfluidic basic theory and principles and apply this
knowledge to their own unique designs. Recent advances in
microfluidics and microsystems for life sciences are impacting
chemistry, biophysics, molecular, cell biology, and medicine for
applications that include DNA analysis, drug discovery, disease
research, and biofluid and environmental monitoring.
Microfluidic Devices for Biomedical Applications, Second Edition
provides updated coverage on the fundamentals of microfluidics,
while also exploring a wide range of medical applications. Chapters
review materials and methods, microfluidic actuation mechanisms,
recent research on droplet microfluidics, applications in drug
discovery and controlled-delivery, including micro needles,
consider applications of microfluidic devices in cellular analysis
and manipulation, tissue engineering and their role in developing
tissue scaffolds, and cover the applications of microfluidic
devices in diagnostic sensing, including genetic analysis, low-cost
bioassays, viral detection, and radio chemical synthesis. This book
is an essential reference for medical device manufacturers,
scientists and researchers concerned with microfluidics in the
field of biomedical applications and life-science industries.
