Techno at the heart of syndromic approaches

Microfluidics refers to both the study of the flow of fluids on the micrometer scale and the technologies for manipulating these fluids. It has enabled extraordinary advances in science with the manufacturing of centimeter-sized laboratories on a chip. It is the basis for the development of single-cell analyzes and diagnostic molecular biology. Its applications are as diverse as pregnancy or diabetes monitoring tests, the development of syndromic panels in molecular biology or the development of digital PCR (dPCR) systems. Laminar flows Microfluidics draws its potential from the different behaviors of fluids at this scale, and especially from the fact that, in microchannels, the flows are laminar: there is no turbulence, which allows easier control of their flow. behaviors. Diagnostic applications have been…
