| Research Abstract |
The integration of microscopic fluid handling system into a compact device has been performed. We have newly developed a miniaturized pump device, which includes ten electroosmotic pumps in its business-card sized body. Since the pump device acts as multiple pressure-generating sources, we can materialize a compact and functional microfluidic system by stacking additional fluidic layers on that unit. Using it, we have successfully demonstrated two fundamental fluid-handling experiments ; a laminar flow control and a micro valve operation. These demonstrations show the developed pump device contributes much to downsizing of the total setup of microfluidic systems.
