Abstract: Microfluidics is the platform technologythat has a potential to impact several fields including chemistry, biology andmedicine. The vision of miniaturizing a laboratory into a device in thesize of a computer chip has been receiving significant interests from bothacademia and industries. Potential applications of the portable,miniaturized devices include point-of-care testing (e.g., in emergency rooms),environmental monitoring, and detection of biowarfare agents in the field. In this presentation, a brief review will be given on the concept ofmicrofluidics, device fabrication, and fluid manipulation in mcroscale,followed by discussion on their various applications including tumor cellisolation, high-throughput protein synthesis, and two-dimensional proteinseparation.
(微流控技術平臺在化學💁🏻、生物和醫學等領域都會產生推動作用💂🏿♂️。把一個實驗室縮小到一個計算機芯片大小的裝置的願景不僅在學術界引起了極大的興趣👊👮🏿♂️，在工業界也倍受青睞🥰🚕。便攜式微型化裝置的潛在應用包括即時檢測（例如急診室）🖕🏻👂🏿、環境監測👑、以及戰場上生物戰製劑的檢測等。本報告將首先簡述微流控概念、微裝置的製造‼️、以及微觀狀態下的流體操縱；然後詳述它們在腫瘤細胞分離、高通量蛋白合成、以及二維蛋白分離方面的各種應用。)
