Application of microreactors in medicine and biomedicine
Microreactor technology is an interdisciplinary field that combines science and engineering. This new concept in production, analysis and research is finding increasing application in many different fields. Benefits of this new technology pose a vital influence on chemical industry, biotechnology, pharmaceutical industry and medicine, life science, clinical and environmental diagnostic. In last few years, together with microplant development, a great part of research investigation is focused on integrated micro- systems, so called micro-total-analysis-systems (µ-TAS) or lab-on-chip (LOC). They are devices that perform sampling, sample preparation, detection and date processing in integrated model. Cell sorting, cell lysis, single cell analysis and non-destructive single cell experiments on just one microreactor, makes LOC platform possible. Clinical diagnostic devices are also going towards completely integrated, multiple sophisticated biochemical analyses (PCR amplification, cell lysis, separation and detection) all on a single platform and in real time. There is also special interest paid on usage of microdevices in tissue engineering and microengineering development. Tissue engineering is one of the most promising fields that can lead to in vitro tissue and organ reconstruction ready for implantation.
