摘要

Miniaturization is the holy grail of molecular biology applications such as gene sequencing. One of the reasons is that the reagents-prepared liquid samples used in testing-are extremely costly while the number of genes (bases and proteins) that need identification is extremely large. If you can figure out how to use less reagent while increasing testing speed, then the grail is within grasp. This is where microfluidics comes in.
