There have been many driving forces to exploit potential benefits of micro-sized apparatus of fluidic systems relative to systems of conventional size, including reduced consumption of samples and reagents, shorter analysis times, greater sensitivity, portability that allows in situ and real-time analysis, and disposability. A unifying vision for the field has been the notion that, in the same way that integrated circuits used miniaturized transistors to automate computation, nano/microfluidic chips can implement large-scale automation of biological processes using nanoliter/picoliter volumes. Recent advances in this area are resulting in exciting new biotechnology or medicine applications that may influence the course of genomics and proteomics technology. In this presentation, nano/microfluidic systems for nanobiotechnology will be presented with the examples of molecular biology applications such as DNA isolation, gene amplification (PCR), and gene transformation on a chip. Furthermore, the first complicated nano/microfluidic parallel architecture will be described as well as robust mechanical fluidic handling methods for nanoliter or picoliter sample volumes. The unique ability of nano/microfluidic systems will enable the application of functional genomics and proteomics to previously inaccessible problems.
