Microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs) have garnered significant interest as a
promising analytical platform in the past decade. Compared with traditional microfluidics …

Microfluidics offer economy of reagents, rapid liquid delivery, and potential for automation of
many reactions, but often require peripheral equipment for flow control. Capillary …

Several gallium-based liquid metal alloys are liquid at room temperature. As 'liquid', such
alloys have a low viscosity and a high surface tension while as 'metal', they have high …

Abstract Lab-on-a-chip (LOC) devices are broadly used for research in the life sciences and
diagnostics and represent a very fast moving field. LOC devices are designed, prototyped …

This paper reviews a new field of direct femtosecond laser surface nano/microstructuring
and its applications. Over the past few years, direct femtosecond laser surface processing …

The development of passively driven microfluidic labs on chips has been increasing over the
years. In the passive approach, the microfluids are usually driven and operated without any …

Microfabricated integrated circuits revolutionized computation by vastly reducing the space,
labor, and time required for calculations. Microfluidic systems hold similar promise for the …

This review describes microfluidic systems in poly (dimethylsiloxane)(PDMS) for biological
studies. Properties of PDMS that make it a suitable platform for miniaturized biological …

We might be at the turning point where research in microfluidics undertaken in academia
and industrial research laboratories, and substantially sponsored by public grants, may …

A rapidly emerging field in lab-on-a-chip (LOC) research is the development of devices to
improve the health of people in develo** countries. In this review, we identify diseases …
