Abstract

In this experimental work, a single prototype microchannel bend is fabricated by maskless lithography, hot embossing lithography and direct bonding technique. The surface-driven microfluidic flow of dyed water is recorded in the fabricated prototype bend. A brief review on bio-microfluidics is provided in this short experimental report towards the applications in biotechnology. Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is an efficient polymer to fabricate the microfluidic lab-on-a-chip systems. This short experimental report may be useful for blood filtration in PMMA based microfluidic lab-on-a-chip systems, for example, structurally modified microchannel bend.
