After having reviewed some aspects of microfluidic system preparation in the first part (1), in
this second part of the review we will cover a number of standard operations (namely …

This Review addresses methods for obtaining sequence information directly from
unamplified genomic length DNA. Our generic starting point is a large piece of DNA that …

An integrated system for rapid PCR-based analysis on a microchip has been demonstrated.
The system couples a compact thermal cycling assembly based on dual Peltier …

We have designed a microfluidic device in which we can manipulate, lyse, label, separate,
and quantify the protein contents of a single cell using single-molecule fluorescence …

Monolithic porous polymers have been prepared by photoinitiated polymerization within the
channels of a microfluidic device and used for on-chip solid-phase extraction and …

Microfabricated bioanalytical devices (also referred to as laboratory-on-a-chip or μ-TAS)
offer highly efficient platforms for simultaneous analysis of a large number of biologically …

This review offers an overview of the relatively young research area of continuous flow lab-
on-a-chip for synthetic applications. A short introduction on the basic aspects of lab-on-a …

This review is devoted to the rapid developments in the field of microfluidic separation
devices in which the flow is electrokinetically driven, and where the separation element …

Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) are evolving into highly integrated technologies
for a variety of application areas. Add the biological dimension to the mix and a host of new …

Advances in microfluidic and nanofluidic technologies have been paralleled by advances in
methods for direct optical measurement of transport phenomena on these scales. A variety …
