ABSTRACT

Focusing on what has been one of the driving forces behind the development of lab-on-a-chip devices, Separation Methods in Microanalytical Systems explores the implementation, realization, and operation of separation techniques and related complex workflows on microfabricated devices. The book details the design, manufacture, and integration of diverse components needed to perform an entire analytical procedure on a single miniaturized device. This volume is valuable reference for scientists and engineers anticipating the demand for function-specific chemical separation systems in biomedical diagnostics, environmental monitoring, and drug discovery applications.
