Lab-on-a-Chip
Lab-on-a-Chip
Microfluidic devices for miniaturized chemical and biological analysis.
Lab-on-a-chip (LOC) devices integrate sample preparation, reaction, separation, and detection on microfluidic substrates, enabling portable, low-volume, rapid analysis. Limited commercialization; applications in diagnostics, environmental monitoring, and point-of-care testing. Research continues into improved sensitivity, multiplexing, and integration.
