In this article we describe different techniques for microfluidic rapid prototyping platforms. The proposed techniques are based on ultraviolet (UV) sensitive and temperature curing epoxies, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) based tubing, wire-bonding, and anisotropic adhesive films. The assembling procedures presented are developed for both one-time use devices as well as reusable microfluidic systems.

2026
This study developed a high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (HPLC-QQQ-MS) method to identify and quantify tropane alkaloids (hyoscyamine, anisodamine, scopolamine) in Anisodus tanguticus. The method proved rapid, accurate, and reliable for high-throughput analysis of medicinal plants.
FAQs
Pressure-driven flow supplies the force that moves a selected liquid through a syringe, nozzle, or channel and into a defined region. The delivery path helps determine where the material accumulates and supports formation of a controlled geometry. Consistent movement through the chosen pathway can also contribute to reproducible fabrication of engineered structures.
These processes stabilize the injected material after it reaches the desired space or mold. Cooling can solidify the material, while gelation or chemical crosslinking can create a more persistent structure within a biological construct. Selecting an appropriate stabilization process helps preserve the intended geometry and determines whether the resulting product is a device, hydrogel, scaffold, or related construct.
Geometric control allows the material to occupy a defined space rather than forming an uncontrolled shape. This is important when fabricating polymeric devices, hydrogels, scaffolds, or other engineered biological systems whose structure affects how they are prepared and studied. Combining directed injection with post-injection stabilization can improve reproducibility between fabricated constructs.
A typical workflow begins by selecting the liquid material and the target space, mold, or biological construct. The material is then driven through a syringe, nozzle, or channel into the defined geometry. After placement, cooling, gelation, or chemical crosslinking stabilizes the structure. The resulting construct can then support fabrication, prototyping, or biomaterials research.
The method requires a liquid material selected for the intended engineered system, along with a syringe, nozzle, or channel for pressure-driven delivery. A defined space, mold, or biological construct receives the material, and a suitable stabilization process follows. These components support work with polymeric devices, hydrogels, scaffolds, and other bioengineered structures.
Researchers can apply this approach when they need rapid, controlled preparation of customized structures. Its uses include prototyping, tissue engineering, biomaterials research, and development of tailored biofabrication workflows. The method is also relevant when shortened fabrication time and improved reproducibility are valuable outcomes, particularly for preparing devices, hydrogels, scaffolds, or other engineered biological systems.
