9780128224823: Microfluidics for Cellular Applications (Micro and Nano Technologies)

Inhaltsangabe

Microfluidics for Cellular Applications describes microfluidic devices for cell screening from a physical, technological and applications point-of-view, presenting a comparison with the cell microenvironment and conventional instruments used in medicine. Microfluidic technologies, protocols, devices for cell screening and treatment have reached an advanced state but are mainly used in research. Sections break them down into practical applications and conventional medical procedures and offers insights and analysis on how higher resolutions and fast operations can be reached. This is an important resource for those from an engineering and technology background who want to understand more and gain additional insights on cell screening processes.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Microfluidics for Cellular Applications describes microfluidic devices for cell screening from a physical, technological and applications point of view, giving a comparison with the cell microenvironment and the conventional instruments used in medicine.

Microfluidic technologies, protocols, and devices for cell screening and treatment have reached an advanced state, but they are still mainly used for research purposes. They have not yet broken into practical applications and conventional medical procedures since they are often cumbersome to use, unreliable, or require complicated or expensive set-up. On the other hand, microfluidic devices can provide unique insights and reach higher resolutions and faster operations in comparison to conventional medical technologies.

Microfluidics for Cellular Applications is an important resource for those from an engineering and technology background to understand more about microfluidic methods that can be used to gain additional insights into cell screening processes.
