Microfluidics

Microfluidics is the study and manipulation of tiny amounts of fluids, often at the scale of microliters or less. This technology uses small channels, often just the width of a human hair, to control fluid movement, enabling precise mixing, analysis, and reactions. Commonly found in lab-on-a-chip devices, microfluidics can streamline medical diagnostics, chemical analysis, and biological research by requiring smaller samples and offering faster results. Its applications range from drug development to environmental testing, making it a powerful tool in science and technology.
