Continuous-flow microfluidics
Continuous-flow microfluidics involves manipulating tiny amounts of fluids through small channels, often narrower than a human hair. This technology allows precise control over fluid movement and mixing at a microscopic scale, enabling applications like medical diagnostics, chemical synthesis, and biological research. By continuously flowing samples and reagents, it offers rapid, efficient, and scalable processes with minimal waste. This approach mimics natural processes, providing high precision in tasks such as detecting diseases or producing pharmaceuticals, all within a compact device that operates with small sample volumes and high accuracy.
