Microfluidic structures include micropneumatic systems, i.e. microsystems for the handling of off-chip fluids (liquid pumps, gas valves, etc.), and microfluidic structures for the on-chip handling of nanoliter (nl) and picoliter (pl) volumes. [64] To date, the most successful commercial application of microfluidics is the inkjet printhead. [65]

Ann Arbor is a city in and the county seat of Washtenaw County in the U.S. state of Michigan.Founded in 1824 by John Allen and Elisha Rumsey, it was named after the wives of the village's founders, both named Ann, and the stands of bur oak trees they found there.
Microfluidics deals with the behavior, precise control and manipulation of fluids that are geometrically constrained to a small, typically sub-millimeter, scale. Typically, micro means one of the following features:
Microfluidic devices make possible the study of a single cell to a few hundred cells in a 3D environment. Comparatively, macroscopic 2D cultures have 10 4 to 10 7 cells on a flat surface. [10] Microfluidics also allow for chemical gradients, the continuous flow of fresh media, high through put testing, and direct output to analytical ...
The primary advantages of MALDI detection over ESI in microfluidic devices are that MALDI allows for much easier multiplexing, [251] [252] which even further increases the device's overall throughput, [242] as well as less reliance on moving parts, and the absence of Taylor cone stability problems posed by microfluidic-scale flow rates.
Digital microfluidics (DMF) is a platform for lab-on-a-chip systems that is based upon the manipulation of microdroplets. Droplets are dispensed, moved, stored, mixed, reacted, or analyzed on a platform with a set of insulated electrodes.
Biomicrofluidics is a bimonthly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering all aspects of research on fundamental physicochemical mechanisms associated with microfluidic, nanofluidic, and molecular/cellular biophysical phenomena in addition to novel microfluidic and nanofluidic techniques for diagnostic, medical, biological, pharmaceutical, environmental, and chemical applications.
