Microfluidics in Detection Science: Lab-On-A-Chip Technologies (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781849736381)

The concept of an integrated, miniaturised laboratory on a disposable chip has gone from hypothetical device to academic study to use in industry, medicine and defence application over the last twenty years; however, as these devices enter circulation and become relevant to industrial applications, so there is a need for a simple guide to the design and manufacture of laboratory on a chip devices. In this book, we present for the first time a modular approach to the construction and integration of laboratory-on-a-chip components. With application chapters divided into applications for sample preparation and detection methods, and with unique chapters on the integration of lab-on-a-chip components with each other and with supporting technology, this book offers the reader a convenient guide to this emerging field of technology.
