Microfluidic Devices for Point-of-Care Diagnostics
Quick fact
Some microfluidic devices can analyze a single drop of blood in under 10 minutes, using channels so narrow that a million of them could fit across a single centimeter.
Why this is interesting
What if a blood test could be done in minutes using a device smaller than a credit card? Microfluidic devices are making this a reality, but how do they work?
