Micro- and nanofluidic systems for high-throughput biological screening

Jongin Hong et al. Drug Discov Today. 2009 Feb.

Abstract

High-throughput screening (HTS) is a method of scientific experimentation widely used in drug discovery and relevant to the fields of biology. The development of micro- and nanofluidic systems for use in the biological sciences has been driven by a range of fundamental attributes that accompany miniaturization and massively parallel experimentation. We review recent advances in both arraying strategies based on nano/microfluidics and novel nano/microfluidic devices with high analytical throughput rates.
