Description: Micro-Drops and Digital Microfluidics (Micro and Nano Technologies) [Hardcover] Berthier, Jean Product Overview In this 2nd edition of Micro-Drops and Digital Microfluidics, Jean Berthier explores the fundamentals and applications of digital microfluidics, enabling engineers and scientists to design this important enabling technology into devices and harness the considerable potential of digital microfluidics in testing and data collection.This book describes the most recent developments in digital microfluidics, with a specific focus on the computational, theoretical and experimental study of microdrops.Unique in its emphasis on digital microfluidics and with diverse applications ranging from drug delivery to point-of-care diagnostic chips, organic synthesis to microreactors, Micro- Drops and Digital Microfluidics meets the needs of audiences across the fields of bioengineering and biotechnology, and electrical and chemical engineering.Authoritative reporting on the latest changes in microfluidic science, where microscopic liquid volumes are handled as ""microdrops"" and separately from ""nanodrops."A methodical examination of how liquid microdrops behave in the complex geometries of modern miniaturized systems and interact with different morphological (micro-fabricated, textured) solid substratesA thorough explanation of how capillary forces act on liquid interfaces in contact with micro-fabricated surfacesAnalysis of how droplets can be manipulated, handled, or transported using electric fields (electrowetting), acoustic actuation (surface acoustic waves), or by a carrier liquid (microflow)A fresh perspective on the future of microfluidics Read more Details Publisher : William Andrew; 2nd edition (January 2, 2013) Language : English Hardcover : 560 pages ISBN-10 : 1455725501 ISBN-13 : 02 Item Weight : 2.55 pounds Dimensions : 7.4 x 1.3 x 9.5 inches Best Sellers Rank: #7,190,335 in Books (See Top 100 in Books) #557 in Biotechnology (Books) #778 in Nanotechnology (Books) #1,032 in Microelectronics #557 in Biotechnology (Books) Stock Photos Please Note: All of our book listings use stock photos unless otherwise stated.
