30 years of microfluidics
Open accessAbstract
Microfluidics provides a great opportunity to create devices capable of outperforming classical techniques in biomedical and chemical research. In this review, the origins of this emerging field in the microelectronics industry are detailed. We also appraise how factors such as government funding influenced the development of new materials and fabrication techniques. Current applications of microfluidics are also examined and we highlight areas where work should be focussed in the future to ensure that the technology realises its full potential.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
