Overview

Microfluidics for Biological Applications provides researchers and scientists in the biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and life science industries with an introduction to the basics of microfluidics and also discusses how to link these technologies to various biological applications at the industrial and academic level. Readers will gain insight into a wide variety of biological applications for microfluidics. The material presented here is divided into four parts, Part I gives perspective on the history and development of microfluidic technologies, Part II presents overviews on how microfluidic systems have been used to study and manipulate specific classes of components, Part III focuses on specific biological applications of microfluidics: biodefense, diagnostics, high throughput screening, and tissue engineering and finally Part IV concludes with a discussion of emerging trends in the microfluidics field and the current challenges to the growth and continuing success of the field.

Reviews

Aus den Rezensionen: Das Buch besteht aus einer SammIung von Aubersichtsartikeln zu relevanten Themen in der Mikrofluidik. ... Die einzelnen Aubersichtsartikel beschreiben umfassend und detailliert den Stand der Technik. ... Alle Kapitel geben eine ausfuhrliche Sekundarliteraturliste und verweisen auf ... mikrofluidische Chips und Gerate, um diese auszulesen. ... Insbesondere die ... Einleitungen, die Erlauterungen der ... Materialien und die Darstellung zukunftiger Trends werden in jedem Kapitel erneut diskutiert. ... Zusammenfassend lasst sich sagen, dass einem in den Lebenswissenschaften geschulten Leser das Thema eines Aubersichtsartikels kurz und umfassend naher gebracht wird ...
