报告摘要:
Microfluidics is the platform technology that has a potential to impact several fields including chemistry, materials, and biology. The vision of miniaturizing a laboratory into a device in the size of a computer chip has been receiving significant interests from both academia and industries. Potential applications of the portable, miniaturized devices include point-of-care testing (e.g., in emergency rooms), environmental monitoring, and detection of biowarfare agents in the field. In this presentation, a brief review will be given on the concept of microfluidics, device fabrication, and fluid manipulation in mcroscale, followed by discussion on their various applications including tumor cell isolation, high-throughput protein synthesis, and patterning techniques.
