Written on a non-specialist level by an interdisciplinary team of chemists, biologists and engineers from one of Europe's leading centres for microsystem research, the Danish Mikroelektronik Centret (MIC), this is a concise practical introduction to the subject.
As such, the book is the first to focus on analytical applications, providing life and analytical scientists, biotechnologists and pharmaceutists with an understanding of the principles behind the design and manufacture of chemical and biochemical microsystems.

"In conclusion, the book is a useful addition to the literature and would be useful as an undergraduate textbook, to bridge the gap between the engineers and the chemists, or also as an introduction to the field of microfluidics for researchers who are unfamiliar with the field."Angewandte Chemie IE "The stated goal of the authors to "allow a broad range of scientists and engineers to get interested and familiarized with this very exciting topic" is well accomplished. An excellent overview-in-a-book about lab-on-achip devices."ChemBioChem "I recommend this book to anyone who wants to start working on miniaturized analytical/biological applications. It is interdisciplinary and accessible not only to engineers but also to chemists and biochemists interested in understanding the basics of microfluidic systems. The authors have found a didactic approach to inform you about (nearly) everything you ever wanted to know about engineering lab-on-a-chip devices but were afraid to ask."Advanced MaterialsBioworld". a good introductory text in the developing area of lab-on-a-chip."Clinical Chemistry
