平面微流体-无壁液体处理
Planar microfluidics - liquid handling without walls
摘要:
电子电路的小型化和集成化不仅使半导体器件的性能的巨大提高成为可能,而且还产生了从蜂窝电话到个人计算机的无数新产品和应用。同样,化学和生物过程的微型化和一体化将彻底改变生命科学。基因组时代的药物设计和诊断需要可靠且具有成本效益的高通量技术,这些技术可以集成并允许大规模并行化。微流体技术是实现这种具有亚毫米尺度特征尺寸的小型化实验室的核心技术。在这里,我们报告了一种新型的微流体技术,它满足了微流体处理器的基本要求,类似于其电子对应物:成本效益高的生产,模块化设计,高速,可扩展性和可编程性。
英文摘要:
The miniaturization and integration of electronic circuitry has not only made the enormous increase in performance of semiconductor devices possible but also spawned a myriad of new products and applications ranging from a cellular phone to a personal computer. Similarly, the miniaturization and integration of chemical and biological processes will revolutionize life sciences. Drug design and diagnostics in the genomic era require reliable and cost effective high throughput technologies which can be integrated and allow for a massive parallelization. Microfluidics is the core technology to realize such miniaturized laboratories with feature sizes on a submillimeter scale. Here, we report on a novel microfluidic technology meeting the basic requirements for a microfluidic processor analogous to those of its electronic counterpart: Cost effective production, modular design, high speed, scalability and programmability.
