Report on the Separation Efficiency with Separation Time in the Microfluidic Lab-on-a-Chip Systems Fabricated by Polymers in this 21st Century of 3rd Millennium

Abstract

In this report, author has fabricated total 1157 individual microfluidic devices including many microfluidic lab-on-a-chip systems by the maskless lithography, hot embossing lithography, direct bonding technique, clamping, and surface modification techniques, by his own handson completely. Author has used total 30 individual electrical and non-electrical instruments (including the cleanroom equipment) to perform all experiments of this report by his own hands-on completely. Many microfluidic flow phenomena have been experimentally investigated in this report using the polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) and SU-8 as polymers. Also, the separation of polystyrene microparticles from aqueous microparticle suspensions have been experimentally investigated in the microfluidic lab-on-a-chip systems considering the separation efficiency and separation time as two experimental parameters of these investigations for bioengineering applications.
