Synopsis
The editors of this book have brought together expert authors from around the world to produce a comprehensive volume focusing on applications of Lab on a Chip (LOC) technology in the biomedical and life sciences. Part I includes chapters on LOC biomolecule separation. Separation of biomolecules is an important element of various clinical laboratories and is required for many 'downstream' analytical applications. Various electrophoresis and liquid chromatography applications for proteins and DNA are described as well as methods for cell separation, with an emphasis on blood cell separation, which have many important clinical applications. Part II includes chapters on analysis and manipulation technologies. Authors describe protein, genetic (mainly PCR) and transcriptome analysis with examples from research and clinical applications, as well as cell manipulation and analysis including cell viability analysis and microorganism capturing.
A broad selection of topics of exceptional importance to current science ensures that this book will be of major value to a wide range of molecular biologists, clinical scientists, microbiologists, biochemists and anyone interested in LOC technology or developing applications for LOC devices.
