Microfluidic Technology and Biomedical Field

Abstract

It is seen that the development of microfluidic laboratories working passively on chips has increased over the years. The field of microfluidics includes the use of microstructured devices, which typically have micrometer sizes and allow precise processing of low volumes. Nano fields are the main fields of nanotechnology, which includes science fields such as earth science, organic chemistry, molecular biology, semiconductor physics, micromachinery where the control of the atomic and molecular unit will take place. New techniques are needed to meet existing needs for the development phase. Micro and nano-volume multi-stage systems through micrometer-sized channels and microfluidics, which are many applied science branches, have become widespread in engineering. The circulation of fluids in systems through micrometer-sized channels examines factors that can affect the behavior of fluids, such as surface tension, energy use, and fluid resistance in the system. Microfluidic devices and systems have a variety of functions to replace routine biomedical analysis and diagnostics. It emphasizes a higher level of system integration with advanced automation, control and High Efficiency processing potential while consuming small amounts of sample and reagent in less time. Thanks to miniaturization, better diagnostic speed, cost effectiveness, ergonomics and sensitivity can be achieved. This article describes microfluidic technology, including system components. Literature review will be made in studies completed or ongoing world wide. The mechanisms, applications and recent developments related to microfluidic techniques are listed. Presents current research topics and possible future research in the biomedical field in microfluidic technology.
