Coordonnateurs : Bodas Dhananjay, Gajbhiye Virendra
Microfluidics-Aided Technologies: Platforms for Next Generation Biological Applications aims to provide comprehensive information of microfluidic technologies, their development and biomedical applications. The book provides the fundamentals of microfluidics and addresses the advances and challenges of microfluidic platforms for diagnostics, biological assays, cellular analysis, and drug delivery. Sections introduce micro-scale flow enabled systems, followed by discussions on applications in diagnostics, prognostics, and cellular analysis in the second and third section. The fourth section focuses on breakthroughs in microfluidics like 3D bioprinting, tissue-on-chip, organ-on-chip, and organism-on-chip. The last section provides insights on microfluidics and the study of plants and microbes.
This book offers researchers an interdisciplinary perspective towards biological problems. It is a resource for advanced undergraduate, graduate students, researchers and industry scientists interested in the emergence of advance techniques and next generation microfluidics-aided technologies for applications in the biomedical and medical research.
