How Microfluidics Are Used in Modern Science: Lab-on-A-Chip
Abstract: Microfluidics has changed modern research by making lab-on-a-chip (LOC) technologies that combine multiple lab functions into small, portable devices. These little platforms make it easier to correctly handle small amounts of fluid, which saves time, money, reagents, and automation. This article talks about microfluidics and how it helps LOC technology go forward in all areas of science. We look at important uses of biomedical diagnostics, drug development, environmental monitoring, and …
