Using the right optics for microfluidic work can make the technology more flexible, more modular and more adaptable to changing experimental conditions.

Jeremy Goldstein, Navitar Inc.

Research in biotechnology and biopharmaceuticals can be a daunting process, involving costly reagents, complex interactions and time-consuming analysis. Fortunately, an emerging family of technologies promises to cut some of those expenses, including manpower. Microfluidics, which involves the passage of fluids through microscopic capillaries on cards, in cartridges, on chips and even incorporated into compact discs, reduces the usage of biological samples and reagents and standardizes several basic procedures. In doing so, it releases life scientists from the need to oversee instrumentation...Read full article
