Lab On A Chip

What Is Lab on a Chip

A lab-on-a-chip (LOC) is a device that integrates one or several laboratory functions on a single integrated circuit of only millimeters to a few square centimeters to achieve automation and high-throughput screening. LOCs can handle extremely small fluid volumes down to less than pico-liters. Lab-on-a-chip devices are a subset of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) devices and sometimes called “micro total analysis systems” (�TAS). LOCs may use microfluidics, the physics, manipulation and study of minute amounts of fluids. However, strictly regarded “lab-on-a-chip” indicates generally the scaling of single or multiple lab processes down to chip-format, whereas "�TAS” is dedicated to the integration of the total sequence of lab processes to perform chemical analysis. The term “lab-on-a-chip” was introduced when it turned out that �TAS technologies were applicable for more than only analysis purposes.
