This book focuses on state-of-the-art microfluidic research in medical and biological
applications. The top-level researchers in this research field explain carefully and clearly
what can be done by using microfluidic devices. Beginners in the field ¿undergraduates
engineers biologists medical researchers¿will easily learn to understand microfluidic-based
medical and biological applications. Because a wide range of topics is summarized here it also
helps experts to learn more about fields outside their own specialties. The book covers many
interesting subjects including cell separation protein crystallization single-cell analysis
cell diagnosis point-of-care testing immunoassay embyos worms on a chip and organ-on-a-chip.
Readers will be convinced that microfluidic devices have great potential for medical and
biological applications.
