Microfluidic devices are analogous to circuit boards, and they can be programed to perform all kinds of laboratory tasks on a small scale. They have the potential to perform all kinds of medical tests involving body fluids in a short time and using very small samples. While circuit boards pass electricity, which can be abstracted and quantified as bits, microfluidic devices tend to work with liquids that can mix with one another and contaminate each other. For microfluidic devices to…
