Open microfluidics
open-in-new
<p><a href="/facts/Microfluidics/UW3LnTdE">Microfluidics</a> refers to the flow of fluid in channels or networks with at least one dimension on the micron scale. In open microfluidics, also referred to as open surface microfluidics or open-space microfluidics, at least one boundary confining the fluid flow of a system is removed, exposing the fluid to air or another interface such as a second fluid. </p>
