This practical approach is ideally suited to researchers and R&D staff in industry. Additionally, the interdisciplinary approach to the science of nano- and microfluidics enables readers from a range of different academic disciplines to broaden their understanding. Alongside traditional fluid/transport topics, the book contains a wealth of coverage of materials and manufacturing techniques, chemical modification/surface functionalization, biochemical analysis, and the biosensors involved.
This fully updated new edition also includes new sections on viscous flows and centrifugal microfluidics, expanding the types of platforms covered to include centrifugal, capillary and electro kinetic platforms.
- Provides a practical guide to the successful design and implementation of nano- and microfluidic processes (e.g., biosensing) and equipment (e.g., biosensors, such as diabetes blood glucose sensors)
- Provides techniques, experiments and protocols that are ready to be put to use in the lab, or in an academic or industry setting
- Presents a collection of 3D-CAD and image files on a companion website
