In this paper, we introduce a simple, straight microchannel design for a nanofluidic protein
concentration device. Compared with concentration devices previously developed, the …

This review presents a brief outline and novel developments of electrophoretic separation in
microfluidic chips. Distinct characteristics of microchip electrophoresis (MCE) are discussed …

Simple and efficient sample concentration tools are the key to the application of proteomics
in a biological system. In this paper, we developed a method to realize a nanofluidic …

A massively parallel nanofluidic concentration device array for multiplexed and high-
throughput biomolecule detection is demonstrated. By optimizing the microchannel …

Systems biology advocates the understanding of biology at the systems-level, which
requires massive information of correlations among individual components in complex …

Paper-based analytical devices (eg lateral flow assays) are highly advantageous as
portable diagnostic systems owing to their low costs and ease of use. Because of their low …

The methodological advancements in CIEF in tubes and microchips during the period
between 2002 and early 2008 are reviewed as a continuation of previous review by the …
